## Taxonomy

### 2005 taxonomy

According to the [taxonomy of Bouchet & Rocroi (2005)](/source/Taxonomy_of_the_Gastropoda_(Bouchet_%26_Rocroi,_2005)) the family Chondrinidae has no subfamilies.

Kokshoorn B. & Gittenberger (2010)[2] established a new subfamily to system of Chondrinidae:[2]

- subfamily Chondrininae
