Turritellidae, with the common name "tower shells" or "tower snails", is a taxonomic family of small- to medium-sized sea snails, marine gastropod molluscs in the Sorbeoconcha clade.
They are filter feeders; this method of feeding is somewhat unusual among gastropod mollusks, but is very common in bivalves.
