Eucithara is a genus of small to quite large sea snails, marine gastropod mollusks in the family Mangeliidae.
This genus has been a convenient dumping ground for many Indo-Pacific species. A profound study is still lacking and polyphyly probably occurs, as shown by the radulae of the few species examined.
