Taxonomy

This taxon was long considered to be a subfamily of the Trochidae.


2005 taxonomy

This family consists of two following subfamilies (according to the taxonomy of the Gastropoda by Bouchet & Rocroi, 2005): * subfamily
Calliostomatinae ''Calliostomatinae'' is a subfamily of gastropods, belonging to the family Calliostomatidae.tribe Calliostomatini Thiele 1924 (1847) - synonym: Ziziphininae Gray, 1847 ** tribe Fautricini Marshall, 1995 * subfamily Thysanodontinae Marshall, 1988


2008 taxonomy

According to Williams et al. (2008)Williams S. T., Karube S. & Ozawa T. (September 2008) "Molecular systematics of Vetigastropoda: Trochidae, Turbinidae and Trochoidea redefined". '' Zoologica Scripta'' 37(5): 483-506. the Calliostomatidae stays in Trochoidea. Up to 2008 there were only two species '' Calliostoma javanicum'' and ''

'' that were used in molecular phylogeny studies.


2010 taxonomy

The first molecular phylogeny study of the family Calliostomatidae was made by Williams et al. (2010)Williams S. T., Donald K. M., Spencer H. G. & Nakano, T. (2010). "Molecular systematics of the marine gastropod families Trochidae and Calliostomatidae (Mollusca: Superfamily Trochoidea)". '' Molecular Phylogenetics and Evolution'' 54(3): 783-809. Based on molecular data, they confirmed that Thysanodontinae Marshall, 1988 belongs to the family Calliostomatidae,. It was already previously placed there based on morphological data.


2016 taxonomy

The tribe Fautricini B. A. Marshall, 1995 was raised to the rank of subfamily Fautricinae B. A. Marshall, 1995
