Neomphalidae is a family of sea snails or limpets, specifically deep sea hydrothermal vent limpets. This family was included in the Vetigastropoda, which is a clade according to the Bouchet & Rocroi, 2005. It is now included in the clade Neomphalina. [3]
No subfamilies are included in this family. The Neomphalidae was removed from the subclass Eogastropoda where it was the only family in the superfamily Neomphaloidea McLean, 1981 and order Neomphalida (McLean, 1981). [4]
