Colloniidae is a family of small sea snails with calcareous opercula, marine gastropod mollusks in the clade Vetigastropoda. [1]
Colloniidae was listed as subfamily Colloniinae within the family Turbinidae within Turbinoidea according to the taxonomy of the Gastropoda by Bouchet & Rocroi, 2005.
This taxon consists of four following tribes (according to the taxonomy of the Gastropoda by Bouchet & Rocroi, 2005):
Colloniidae was elevated to family level and (together with Phasianellidae) belongs to superfamily Phasianelloidea according to Williams et al. (2008). [2] McLean (2012) added two more subfamilies Liotipomatinae and Moelleriinae. [3]
In 2017 Colloniidae was classified in the order Trochida. [4]
It contains the following subfamilies:
Genera in the family Colloniidae include: [5]
Turbonillinae is a subfamily of mostly minute parasitic sea snails, marine gastropod molluscs in the family Pyramidellidae, the pyrams and their allies.
Turbinidae, the turban snails, are a family of small to large marine gastropod molluscs in the superfamily Trochoidea.
The Buccinidae are a very large and diverse taxonomic family of large sea snails, often known as whelks or true whelks.
Calliostomatidae is a family of sea snails within the superfamily Trochoidea and the clade Vetigastropoda.
Stomatellinae is a subfamily of small sea snails with a brilliantly nacreous interior of the shell, marine gastropod mollusks in the family Trochidae, the top snails.
Trochoidea is a superfamily of small to very large vetigastropod sea snails with gills and an operculum. Species within this superfamily have nacre as the inner shell layer. The families within this superfamily include the Trochidae, the top snails. This superfamily is the largest vetigastropodan superfamily, containing more than 2,000 species.
Tornidae is a family of very small and minute sea snails with an operculum, marine gastropod mollusks in the clade Littorinimorpha. This family used to be known as the Vitrinellidae. Iredale has shown that the family Adeorbidae Monterosato, 1884 should be called Tornidae
Homalopoma, common name the dwarf turbans, is a genus of mostly very small sea snails with a calcareous operculum, marine gastropoda molluscs in the subfamily Colloniinae of the family Colloniidae.
Trochaclididae, common name the false top snails, is a family of sea snails, marine gastropod mollusks in the clade Vetigastropoda.
Liotiidae is a family of small sea snails, marine gastropod mollusks in the clade Vetigastropoda.
Eucyclidae is a family of gastropods in the superfamily Seguenzioidea.
Seguenzioidea is a superfamily of minute to medium-sized sea snails, marine gastropod mollusks in the clade Vetigastropoda.
Cingulopsidae is a family of sea snails, marine gastropod molluscs in the clade Littorinimorpha.
Areneidae is a family of sea snails, marine gastropod mollusks in the clade Vetigastropoda.
Liotipoma is a genus of sea snails, marine gastropod mollusks in the family Colloniidae.
Cantrainea is a genus of sea snails, marine gastropod mollusks in the family Colloniidae.
The subfamily Emarginulinae, common name keyhole limpets and slit limpets, is a taxonomic subfamily of limpet-like sea snails, marine gastropod molluscs in the family Fissurellidae, the keyhole limpets and slit limpets.
The Skeneidae are a speciose family of minute to small marine gastropod molluscs in the superfamily Trochoidea.
Depressipoma is a genus of small sea snails with calcareous opercula, marine gastropod mollusks in the family Colloniidae.
The taxonomy of the Gastropoda as it was revised in December 2017 by Philippe Bouchet and eight other authors, is a publication which lays out a newly revised system for the scientific classification of gastropod mollusks. The same work also included the taxonomy of monoplacophorans.
