Kelletia is a genus of large sea snails, whelks, a marine gastropod molluscs in the family Buccinidae, the true whelks.

Description

One extant species Kelletia lischkei occurs in the Sea of Japan off the coasts of Japan and South Korea, and another K. kelletii is found of along the coasts of California, USA and in the Baja California, Mexico.[2] Fossil species are documented in Japan,[3] California,[4][5][6][7][8] and Ecuador.[9] A molecular phylogeny of Buccinidae based on the mitochondrial 16S rRNA gene suggested that Kelletia is a sister clade to Penion, a whelk genus with extant species distributed in waters off of New Zealand and Australia.[2]
