  • subfamily Chondrulopsininae
  • subfamily Merdigerinae
  • subfamily Buliminusinae
  • subfamily Andronakiinae
  • subfamily Retowskiinae
  • subfamily Eninae - including Chondrula
  • subfamily Multidentulini

2005 taxonomy edit

The following two subfamilies have been recognized in the taxonomy of Bouchet & Rocroi (2005):

  • subfamily Eninae B. B. Woodward, 1903 (1880)
