Nacellidae was the only family in the superfamily Patelloidea. The family is listed in its own superfamily Patelloidea by Bouchet & Rocroi (2005) but should be included in the Lottioidea following Nakano & Ozawa (2007)

Genera

Genera within the family Nacellidae include:

  • Cellana H. Adams, 1869
  • Macclintockia Gould, 1846: taxon inquirendum
    • - one species Macclintockia scabra (Gould, 1846): synonym of Lottia scabra (Gould, 1846)
  • Naccula Iredale, 1924[4]
  • Nacella Schumacher, 1817 - type genus
gollark: Viruses don't do long-term planning or indeed any, so a deadlier variant *could* happen.
gollark: Wide deployment, I mean.
gollark: These things always take a while to actually be usable. I expect it's a year out.
gollark: The "other ones lasted longer than a year so the estimates are too optimistic" thing ignores the fact that we can develop vaccines now.
gollark: I find running really boring. Also most exercise-y stuff.
