Conilithes

Conilithes is an extinct genus of sea snails, marine gastropod mollusks in the family Conidae, the cone snails.

This genus is known in the fossil record from the Lutetian (Eocene) of France, the United Kingdom and New Zealand to the Piacenzian (Pliocene) of Italy (age range: 48.6 to 2.588 million years ago).

Conolithus (Hermannsen, 1846) is an "invalid emendation" of Conilithes (Swainson, 1840), in the terminology introduced in the Copenhagen Decisions on Zoological Nomenclature (London, 1953: 43). Conilithes Swainson (spelled Conolithes by Wenz) is a junior homonym of Conilites (Schloth, 1820) (spelled Conolites by Wenz)
