Eulimellinae is a subfamily of minute sea snails, marine gastropod molluscs in the family Pyramidellidae, the pyrams and their allies. In Biological classification, family ( Latin The word snail is a Common name that can be used for almost all members of the Molluscan class Gastropoda which have coiled shells in the Marine is an Umbrella term. As an adjective it is usually applicable to things relating to the Sea or Ocean, such as Marine biology, Marine The class Gastropoda or the gastropods, also previously known as gasteropods, or univalves, and more commonly known as Snails Molluscs are animals belonging to the phylum Mollusca. There are around 250000 extant Species within the phylum with an estimated 70000 Pyramidellidae, Common name the pyram family, or pyramid shells, is a voluminous Taxonomic family of mostly small and minute
This is one of eleven recognised subfamilies of the Pyramidellidae (according to the taxonomy of Ponder & Lindberg, 1997). Pyramidellidae, Common name the pyram family, or pyramid shells, is a voluminous Taxonomic family of mostly small and minute In the taxonomy of Bouchet & Rocroi (2005), this subfamily Cingulininae has been downgraded to the rank of tribe Eulimellini Saurin, 1958 and belonging to the subfamily Turbonillinae. The new Gastropod Taxonomy of Bouchet & Rocroi (2005 (in collaboration with J In Biology, a tribe &mdashor infrafamily&mdashis a Taxonomic rank between family and Genus. Turbonillinae is a Subfamily of mostly minute parasitic sea Snails marine Gastropod Molluscs in the family Pyramidellidae
According to Schander, Van Aartsen & Corgan (1999) there are 17 genera in the Eulimellinae.

Problematic genera within the family Turbonillidae
The following genera are currently difficult to place within the family Turbonillidae (= Cingulininae + Eulimellinae + Turbonillinae)
- Atomiscala DeBoury, 1909
- Hamarilla Eames & Wilkins, 1957
- Pseudographis Mifsud, 1998
- Rissopsetia Dell, 1956
The genus Ebala was previously placed in the Eulimellinae but is now placed in the family Ebalidae Warén, 1994 =Anisocyclidae van Aartsen, 1995
