Skenea is a genus of small to minute sea snails, marine gastropod mollusks in the family Skeneidae.
This genus is type genus for the family Skeneidae. It has been used as a general receptacle for species that are probably unrelated to the type species Helix serpuloides Montagu, 1808, such as Skenea divae Carrozza & Van Aartsen, 2001 and Skenea nilarum Engl, 1996.
