Iotyrris cingulifera is a species of sea snail, a marine gastropod mollusk in the family Turridae, the turrids.{{WRMS species|527381 |Iotyrris cingulifera ||4 October 2010}}
Description
The length of the fusiform shell is 53 mm and its diameter 16 mm. The shell is rather narrow with a very long spire and short siphonal canal. It is corded with larger and smaller riblets and raised lines. The shell is very slightly angulated on each whorl by a somewhat larger rib, which is occasionally bipartite. The growth striae are sharp, sometimes decussating the smaller spiral lines. The color of the shell is whitish, very closely and finely peppered with chestnut and with chestnut spots on the shoulder rib.George Washington Tryon, Manual of Conchology VI, p. 172; 1884
Distribution
This marine species occurs in the Aldabra, Madagascar, Mozambique, Mascarene Basin, Mauritius, the Red Sea and Tanzania
