Taxonomy
2005 taxonomy
Runcinoidea was recognized as a superfamily in the clade
Cephalaspidea, within the informal group
Opisthobranchia
Opisthobranchs () is now an informal name for a large and diverse group of specialized complex gastropods which used to be united in the subclass Opisthobranchia. That taxon is no longer considered to represent a monophyletic grouping.

taxonomy of the Gastropoda by Bouchet & Rocroi, 2005).
They also recognized two families,
Runcinidae and
Ilbiidae.
2009 taxonomy
Malaquias et al. (2009)
[Malaquias M. A. E., Dodds J. M., Bouchet P. & Reid D. G. (2009). "A molecular phylogeny of the Cephalaspidea sensu lato (Gastropoda: Euthyneura): Architectibranchia redefined and Runcinacea reinstated". '' Zoologica Scripta'' 38(1): 23-41. .] reinstated Runcinacea as a valid taxon outside the Cephalaspidea.
They also recognized two families
Runcinidae (with genus ''Runcina'') and
Ilbiidae,
but they did not mention superfamilies.
2010 taxonomy
Jörger et al. 2010
moved Runcinacea to the
Euopisthobranchia.
2017 taxonomy
Runcinoidea was classified in the order Runcinida by the revised classification of the Gastropoda.
