Tremanotidae is an extinct family of Paleozoic fossil molluscs with isostrophically coiled shells. They occupy an uncertain position taxonomically: it is not known whether they were ( gastropods (snails) or monoplacophorans.
The taxonomy of the Gastropoda by Bouchet & Rocroi, 2005 [2] categorizes Tremanotidae in the superfamilia Bellerophontoidea within the Paleozoic molluscs of uncertain systematic position with isostrophically coiled shells (Gastropoda or Monoplacophora). This family has no subfamilies.
Genera in the family Tremanotidae include: [3]
