Oenopotinae is a subfamily of small to medium-sized sea snails, marine gastropod mollusks in the family Conidae.^[1]

This subfamily was introduced by Bogdanov in 1987.^[2] In 2014 this subfamily has been included in the family Mangeliidae^[3]

Description

The Oenopotinae are characterized by a thin, elongate-ovate to fusiform shell in the form of a tall spire with a size between 4.7mm and 24.5 mm. They show a present, vestigial or absent operculum and a shallow or inconspicuous sinus. This outer lip (labrum) is thin. The axial ribs are dominant in the sculpture of the shell. The toxoglossate radula has a weak basal ribbon and relatively short marginal teeth with solid base. The tooth cavity opens laterally between the shaft and the base.^[4]
