See text Strictispira is a genus of sea snails, marine gastropod mollusks in the family Pseudomelatomidae, the turrids and allies.

[1] Previously this genus was included in the family Turridae, subfamily Strictispirinae.

Taylor et al. (1993) elevated this subfamily to the rank of family Strictispiridae.

Faber (2007) stated that these species were conchological identical to Crassispira, but differ by a different radula type and buccal mass.

But then he opinioned that this did not reflect a deep, subfamily-level phylogeny.
