Cordieria is a genus of sea snails, marine gastropod mollusks in the family Borsoniidae.Bouchet, P. (2015). Cordieria. In: MolluscaBase (2015). Accessed through: World Register of Marine Species at http://www.marinespecies.org/aphia.php?p=taxdetails&id=432436 on 2016-03-03
This genus is considered by the French malacologist Maurice Cossmann separate from Borsonia, not on the basis of the columellar plaits alone, but mostly because of the shorter siphonal canal and a number of other characteristics that he enumerates.
Species Species within the genus Borsonia include: † Cordieria fuscoamnica Darragh, 2017 Cordieria horrida Monterosato, 1884 MNHN, Paris: Cordieria horrida † Cordieria iberica Rouault, 1848 Cordieria ovalis P.
