Khairkhaniidae is an extinct family of Paleozoic fossil molluscs of uncertain position. They are thought to belong to either the Gastropoda or Monoplacophora. They possess planispiral coiled shells with a columnar microstructure. [2]
The taxonomy of the Gastropoda by Bouchet & Rocroi, 2005 [3] categorizes Khairkhaniidae within the Paleozoic molluscs of uncertain systematic position. This family is unassigned to superfamily. This family has no subfamilies.
According to the P. Yu. Parkhaev, the Khairkhaniidae is the only family in the order Khairkhaniifomes within the subclass Divasibranchia.
