Nacellidae was the only family in the superfamily Nacelloidea as described by Bouchet & Rocroi (2005),.[2] However a molecular phylogenetic study of Patellogastropoda by Nakano & Ozawa (2007) found that Nacellidae was recovered within Lottioidea, as shown in the following cladogram:[4]
As a result Nacellidae was moved to Lottioidea in the taxonomic revision of Bouchet et al (2017).[3] More recently, a recent phylogenomic study found Nacellidae as a sister to Patellidae, which suggests that Nacellidae should be transferred to Patelloidea.[5][6]
- one species Macclintockia scabra (Gould, 1846): synonym of Lottia scabra (Gould, 1846)
