Parviturbo is a genus of minute sea snails, marine gastropod mollusks in the family Skeneidae.
Description The very small, solid shell is perforate or has a narrow umbilicus. It contains a few convex whorls. The protoconch consists of one or two smooth whorls. The turbinate or globoso-conic shell shows numerous subequal spiral cords with in their intervals well developed or weak cross threads. The dentition of the radula is rhipidoglossate.Pilsbry & Olsson, Vitrinellidae and Similar Gastropods of the Panamic Province.
