Family of sea snails
Granulinidae are a family of small to medium-large sea snails, marine gastropod mollusks in the clade Neogastropoda.[1][2]
Genera
In 2019 the subfamily Granulininae has been raised to rank of family Granulinidae G. A. Coovert & H. K. Coovert, 1995 (original rank).
This subfamily was originally placed in family Cystiscidae by Coovert & Coovert (1995)[3] but placed back in Marginellidae, following La Perna (1999) and based on the morphology of living animals.
