A new fossil species of Coralliophilinae Chenu, 1859 (Gastropoda Muricidae), in the genus Babelomurex Coen, 1922, is here described and illustrated as Babelomurex brugnonei n. sp., found in Altavilla Milicia, Sicilian locality known for the Pliocene-Pleistocene siliciclastic succession exposed in this geographical area. The new species is compared with Latiaxis janianus (Cocconi, 1873) and Latiaxis dellabellai Brunetti, 2004, the other two morphologically close fossil species reported in the Pliocene of the Mediterranean Basin. A taxonomic update is suggested for these fossil species of Coralliophilinae, all belonging to the genus Babelomurex.
