Odetta is a genus of small sea snail, a marine gastropod mollusk in the subfamily Odostomiinae which is a large taxon of minute marine gastropods with a heterostrophic protoconch.

According to Gary Rosenberg's Malacolog however, "Odetta" is not a valid genus name. It is considered to be an unavailable name, because it was published as a "nomen nudum".
