Skeneidae

See text Skeneinae Clark W., 1851 The Skeneidae are a speciose family of minute to small marine gastropod molluscs in the superfamily Trochoidea.

[1] The former subfamily Skeneinae (in the family Turbinidae) was loosely defined.

Recent molecular evidence suggests that a number of these genera in Skeneinae probably belong to other families altogether, so many of these assignments must be regarded as provisional.

But even then, the family Skeneidae represents a polyphyletic, “skeneimorph” assemblage.

[5] It should be pruned of many genera which would go to the superfamily Seguenzioidea according to Kano (2008) [6] Until a researcher formally assigns them to a seguenzioid family in the literature, the database WoRMS prefers to keep them unchanged.
