Trochomorphidae is a family of air-breathing land snails, terrestrial pulmonate gastropod mollusks in the superfamily Gastrodontoidea (according to the taxonomy of the Gastropoda by Bouchet & Rocroi, 2005). Since 2017, its classification has been revised and it now belongs to the superfamily Trochomorphoidea{{Cite journal|last=Bouchet|first=Philippe|date=2017|title=Revised classification, nomenclator and typification of gastropod and monoplacophoran families.|journal=Malacologia|volume=61|issue=1–2|pages=1–526|doi=10.4002/040.061.0201|s2cid=91051256}}MolluscaBase eds.
