Pyramidellinae is a taxonomic subfamily of minute sea snails, marine gastropod mollusks in the family Pyramidellidae, the pyrams and their allies. Taxonomy is the practice and science of classification The word comes from the Greek, taxis (meaning 'order' 'arrangement' and, nomos 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.

It is one of eleven recognised subfamilies of the marine gastropod family Pyramidellidae (according to the taxonomy of Ponder & Lindberg, 1997), which are as follows: Odostomiinae, Turbonillinae, Chrysallidinae, Cingulininae, Cyclostremellinae, Sayellinae, Syrnolinae, Eulimellinae, Pyramidellinae, Odostomellinae and Tiberiinae. Marine is an Umbrella term.

However, in the taxonomy of Bouchet & Rocroi (2005), this subfamily consists of the following tribes , adding the tribe Sayellini containing only two genera Sayella Dall, 1885 and Petitilla Wise, 1997 :
- Tribe Pyramidellini Gray, 1840 (= subfamily Pyramidellinae)
- Tribe Sayellini Wise, 1996 (= subfamily Sayellinae)
According to Schander, Van Aartsen & Corgen (1999) there are 12 genera within the Pyramidellinae. 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. William Healey Dall, ( August 21, 1845 - March 27, 1927) was a great American naturalist and a prominent malacologist Sayellinae is a Taxonomic Subfamily of minute ectoparasitic sea Snails marine Gastropod Molluscs or
