Ordovician-Silurian gastropods from western North Greenland collected by the British Arctic Expedition (1874-1876) and described by R. Etheridge (1878) are reviewed. Offleyotrochus n. gen. is proposed, with type species O. naresi (Etheridge, 1878) from the Silurian of Orney Ø, and assigned to the family Euomphalidae.
