;Bouchet & Rocroi (2005) This taxon is ranked at subfamily level Rostellariinae within the family Strombidae in the taxonomy of the Gastropoda (Bouchet & Rocroi, 2005). Above this rank the superfamily Caenogastropoda contains the unranked clades Hypsogastropoda and Littorinimorpha respectively.
;Morrison (2008) Rostellariidae is ranked at family level for example by Morrison (2008).
