Kermia bifasciata is a species of sea snail, a marine gastropod mollusk in the family Raphitomidae. [1]
It was assigned to Kermia by Kay, 1979 [2]
The length of the shell varies between 5.32 mm and 8.04 mm.
(Original description) The fusiform, shining shell is longitudinally coarsely ribbed (14 on the body whorl) and crossed by coarse raised striae. The protoconch consists of three brown conical whorls. The five whorls of the teleoconch are rounded at the sutures. The outer lip is thick, incurved, serrated on the edges at the termination of the transverse striae. The ovate aperture has no denticles. The siphonal canal is short and slightly recurved. The colour of the shell is white. There are two light brown bands on each whorl. [3] [4]

Measuring a length of 4.5 mm, with a 1.5 mm diameter, the species is white and slightly ochraceous at the sutures. It contains seven whorls, turreted, two smooth whorls being apical, finely and regularly clathrate. The aperture is sinuously-oblong. The crenulate outer lip is simple within. The columellar margin is minutely toothed towards the base. The sinus is wide. The siphonal canal is a little produced. There is a very pale ochraceous band round the middle of the body whorl, as at the sutures. The sinus is deeply cut behind. At the sutural margin of the outer lip is a bright ochraceous thickened callus.
