Comispira is a genus of sea snails, marine gastropod mollusks in the family Cochlespiridae.

General characteristics

Species of this genus resemble Sibogasyrinx in the presence of the subsutural row of nodules, but differ in usually more pronounced spiral sculpture on the shell base, of broadly-spaced and rather strong spiral cords.
