Bandel (2006)[4] described a new subfamily, Argyropezinae.
- Argyropezinae Bandel, 2006[4]
- †Procerithiinae Cossmann, 1906[4] – includes Cryptaulax[4]
- †Paracerithiinae Cossmann, 1906[4]
Bandel (2006)[4] expressed doubts about the validity of Cryptaulacinae, because Cryptaulax and Procerithium may be based on the same species.[4]
