Bathymophila is a genus of sea snails, marine gastropod mollusks in the family Solariellidae.^[2]

Previously Bathymophila was brought under the subfamily Margaritinae, because of the resemblance of its shell with Margarites Gray, 1847

The shell has a broad flattened columella, which has a blunt tooth, rough or granulated, at its end.^[3]

Species within the genus Bathymophila include:

Bathymophila nitens (Dall, 1881):^[10] synonym of Bathymophila euspira (Dall, 1881)
Bathymophila tenorioi Poppe, Tagaro & Dekker, 2006:^[11] synonym of Arxellia tenorioi (Poppe, Tagaro & Dekker, 2006) (original combination)
