2005 taxonomy
Siphonarioidea was previously a superfamily in the informal group Basommatophora within the Pulmonata.
2010 taxonomy
Jörger et al. (2010) determined that the Basommatophora (Siphonarioidea, Amphiboloidea, and Hygrophila) was a polyphyletic group, and they moved the Siphonarioidea to the Panpulmonata.
