Taxonomy

The families within the Testacelloidea are as follows:[1]

This taxonomy was based on the study by Nordsieck, published in 1986,[3] and the publication by Schileyko in 2000.[4]

The following families, previously categorized within the Testacelloidea, were transferred to the superfamily Oleacinoidea H. Adams & A. Adams, 1855 in 2017.[5]
