'''Rissoidae''' is a large family of sea snails. Members of the Rissoidae are very small in size and possess an operculum.

==Distribution and habitat== Rissoidae are found worldwide. They live on sandy or gravel bottoms among algae or marine plants. They are also found under rocks in crevices or other sheltered places.

== Subfamilies == The following subfamilies were recognized in the taxonomy of Bouchet & Rocroi of 2005: * Rissoinae <small>Gray, 1847</small> * Rissoininae <small>Stimpson, 1865</small> In 2013 the subfamily Rissoininae was elevated to the rank of family Rissoinidae by Criscione F. & Ponder W.F.<ref>{{cite journal | last1 = Criscione | first1 = F. | last2 = Ponder | first2 = W.F. | year = 2013 | title = A phylogenetic analysis of rissooidean and cingulopsoidean families (Gastropoda: Caenogastropoda) | journal = Molecular Phylogenetics and Evolution | volume = 66 | issue = 3 | pages = 1075–1082 | doi=10.1016/j.ympev.2012.11.026 | pmid=23238494}}</ref>
