Conorbiinae was a subfamily of small to quite large sea snails, marine gastropod mollusks in the family Conidae.

Bouchet, Kantor et al. elevated in 2011 the subfamily Conorbiinae to the rank of family Conorbidae. This was based on anatomical characters (radular tooth and shell characters) and a dataset of molecular sequences of three gene fragments
