Gemmuloborsonia is a genus of sea snails, marine gastropod mollusks in the family Clavatulidae.^{[1] [2]}

This genus is provisionally included in the family Clavatulidae as the characters of the shell and the radula of this genus resemble more the characters of this family than those of the family Horaiclavidae. However, it differs from the other genera in this family by its weak columellar pleats and the multispiral protoconch.
