Bouchet & Rocroi (2005)

This taxon is ranked at subfamily level Rostellariinae within the family Strombidae in the taxonomy of the Gastropoda (Bouchet & Rocroi, 2005).[2] Above this rank the superfamily Caenogastropoda contains the unranked clades Hypsogastropoda and Littorinimorpha respectively.

Morrison (2008)

Rostellariidae is ranked at family level for example by Morrison (2008).[3][why?]
