Syrnolininae is a subfamily of minute parasitic sea snails, marine heterobranch gastropod molluscs in the family Pyramidellidae, the pyrams and their allies.

[edit] Systematics

This is one of eleven recognised subfamilies in the family Pyramidellidae according to the taxonomy of Ponder & Lindberg (1997).

In the taxonomy of Bouchet & Rocroi (2005), this subfamily also comprises the subfamily Tiberiinae, downgraded to the rank of tribe Tiberiini Saurin, 1958 .

• Subfamily Syrnolinae Saurin, 1958
  • Tribe Syrnolini Saurin, 1958
  • Tribe Tiberiini Saurin, 1958 (formerly subfamily Tiberiinae)

According to Schander, Van Aartsen & Corgen (1999) there are NN genera in the subfamily.
