Sinutropis is a genus of fossil sea snails, extinct euomphalid archaeogastropods from the Upper Silurian.
The shell has rounded whorls and a deep rounded sinus on the upper lip of the aperture in place of the typical exhalent angulation of most related genera. Otherwise the shell is not obviously ornamented.
