Procerithiidae is a taxonomic family of sea snails in the subclass Caenogastropoda.[3] As currently defined, it is extinct,[1][3] although it has been suggested to include the extant genus Argyropeza.[4]

Taxonomy
editNo subfamilies are recognized in the MolluscaBase.[3]
2005 taxonomy
editThe following three subfamilies were recognized in the taxonomy of Bouchet & Rocroi (2005):[5]
- †Procerithiinae Cossmann, 1906[2]
- †Paracerithiinae Cossmann, 1906[2]
- Cryptaulacinae Gründel, 1976[6] – includes Argyropeza
2006 taxonomy
editBandel (2006)[4] described a new subfamily, Argyropezinae.
- Argyropezinae Bandel, 2006[4]
- †Procerithiinae Cossmann, 1906[4] – includes Cryptaulax[4]
- †Paracerithiinae Cossmann, 1906[4]
Bandel (2006)[4] expressed doubts about the validity of Cryptaulacinae, because Cryptaulax and Procerithium may be based on the same species.[4]
Genera
editGenera within the family are:[3]
- †Ageria Abbass, 1973
