Guraleus is a genus of sea snails, marine gastropod mollusks in the family Mangeliidae.

==Description== The thin shell is fusiform or subcylindrical. The colour ranges from uniform buff, with or without chocolate spiral lines or bands, to entire chocolate. The protoconch consists of two or three smooth helicoid whorls. Fasciole don't interrupt the sculpture, and are scarcely indicated by the curvature of growth lines.
