***Parviterebra brazieri*** is a [species](/source/Species) of [sea snail](/source/Sea_snail) in the [family](/source/Family_(taxonomy)) [Columbellidae](/source/Columbellidae).[1] This marine species is [endemic](/source/Endemic) to marine waters around Australia, where it occurs off [Victoria](/source/Victoria_(Australia)).

## Description

The length of the shell attains 14 mm, its diameter 4 mm.

(Original description) The shell is narrowly fusiform, attenuate at both ends. Its aspect is smooth, graceful, thin and translucent. The [spire](/source/Spire_(mollusc)) is prominent, acute, equalling the aperture, milky white. The base of the shell is chesnut, but the [apex](/source/Apex_(mollusc)) is stained, fulvous, and on the [body whorl](/source/Body_whorl) zoned with four bands of very pale yellow. The shell contains eight [whorls](/source/Whorl_(mollusc)), sloping, obliquely ribbed. The ribs are smooth, rounded, slightly raised, obtusely angular above, obsolete anteriorly. The suture is well impressed. The [aperture](/source/Aperture_(mollusc)) is narrow and oblong. The outer [lip](/source/Lip_(gastropod)) is thin. The inner lip is reflected.[2]
