Coreospiridae is an extinct family of Paleozoic molluscs of uncertain position taxonomically. They might be snails (Gastropoda), Helcionelloida, or they might be Monoplacophora.

2005 taxonomy

The taxonomy of the Gastropoda by Bouchet & Rocroi, 2005[1] categorizes Coreospiridae in the superfamily Scenelloidea within the Paleozoic molluscs of uncertain systematic position.

2006–2007 taxonomy

According to P. Yu. Parkhaev, the family Coreospiridae is in the family Helcionelloidea (Wenz, 1938) in the order Helcionelliformes (Golikov & Starobogatov, 1975) within the subclass Archaeobranchia (Parkhaev, 2001) in the class Helcionelloida (Peel, 1991).
