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

[1][2] The shell resembles Irenosyrinx, but with stronger sculpture with narrow, low ribs and with a paucispiral, elongate operculum, bearing such a relation to the normal species of Turris as Mohnia bears to Chrysodomus.

[3] Gastropods of this genus are among the largest members of the family Cochlespiridae in the Pacific Ocean, with adult shell sizes reaching up to 92 mm.

[4] These species are predominantly found in sublittoral and relatively deep waters.

However, detailed descriptions of the specific composition of Aforia in bathyal and abyssal environments are sparse.
