Apaturris costifera is a species of sea snail in the family Borsoniidae.
It is white with a broad chestnut band on the centre of the body whorl.
The base is encircled by numerous fairly strong spiral lirae.
The aperture is fairly large, pointed above, broad at the base, where it scarcely becomes a canal.
It has, however, a narrower shell, with more rounded whorls, and the spiral lirae are much less strong.
