"Ticocystiscus" is a genus of minute sea snail, a marine gastropod mollusc in the family Cystiscidae.

This genus, and indeed all the genera in the family, were previously and sometimes still are, placed in the family Marginellidae.

(Note: Gastropod taxonomy has been in flux for more than half a century, and this is especially true currently, because of new research in molecular phylogeny. Because of all the on-going changes, different reliable sources can yield very different classifications.)
