Levantina rechingeri is a species of gastropod belonging to the family Helicidae.[1]
The species is endemic to the island Karpathos, Greece.[2] It is a very rare species, without published observations of live individuals. Following a phylogenetic analysis of DNA contained in the shell, it has been transferred to a newly errected genus Aristena.[3]
