Pseudodaphnella rufolirata is a species of sea snail, a marine gastropod mollusk in the family Raphitomidae.

The barely thick shell has an elongate-fusiform shape.

The numerous, slender, wavy, yellowish red longitudinal ribs are crossed in each whorl by 5 to 6 spiral lirae.

The body whorl is depressed in the middle and then turning upright.

The sinus is subsutural, shallow and slightly open between the first and the third lirae.
