Darrylia is a genus of sea snails, marine gastropod mollusks in the family Horaiclavidae.

It was previously included tentatively within the subfamily Crassispirinae of the family Turridae.[2]

The claviform shell contains strong axial ribs, crossed by narrower spiral cords, and lacks a sutural cord. The elongate-ovate aperture measures about ⅓ of the total length of the shell. The lip shows a strong varix.
