Sinistrofulgur contrarium is a fossil snail species of the busycon whelks in the family Buccinidae. There has been some confusion about the correct taxonomy of this species, which has been confused with the extant species Sinistrofulgur sinistrum Hollister, 1958, and Sinistrofulgur perversum (Linnaeus, 1758)[2][1]
