Phos is a genus of sea snails, marine gastropod mollusks in the family Nassariidae.
The foot is covered with an auriculate shield-like lobe in front, and ends behind in a single tapering filament.
The shell is cancellated, oblong, acuminated and usually longitudinally ribbed.
The outer lip is striated internally, with a slight sinus near the fore part.
The columella is obliquely grooved, or shows a single plait in front.
