Abstract: Cheniena cheni gen. & sp. nov. is described from Sichuan Province, southwest China. This new genus is distinguished by its conical shell, open umbilicus, and the structure of its apertural barriers. Cheniena cheni sp. nov. is diagnosed by its distinct keel among all other enids. The genitalia of this new species are revealed for comparison with other species. Cheniena huangi (Chen, 2020) comb. nov. can be reassigned to the new genus according to the shell morphology.
