Family Testudinellidae*
* ITIS separates Testudinellidae into 3 separate families: Filinidae (including Filinia), Testudinellidae (including Testudinella and Pompholyx) and Trochosphaeidae (including Trochosphaera). Stemberger places them all in a single family, and other references variously split them into 2 families.
