Exquisitiropa is a monotypic genus of small land snails in the family Charopidae. The sole species is Exquisitiropa agnewi, also known as silky snail or silky pinwheel snail. It is endemic to Tasmania.
Exquisitiropa agnewi is known only from Mount Wellington. This snail is poorly known. It has only been found at a few sites on a single mountain, a distribution that may represent a single population. It is small and hard to locate, so it is possible it may occur on other mountains nearby, but focused searches have failed to turn up specimens anywhere else.
