Eulithidium is a genus of sea snails, marine gastropod mollusks in the family Phasianellidae.[1]
Several species were originally placed in the genus Eucosmia. However, the name Eucosmia is pre-occupied in zoology for a group of moths established by Stephens in 1829. The Molluscan Eucosmia may therefore be called Eulithidium to distinguish it from the group of Lepidoptera. [2]
