It was reranked as Natica (Ampullina) by Oppenheim (1900); it was reranked as Polinices (Ampullina) by Clark and Arnold (1923); it was synonymized subjectively with Natica by Kabat (1991).

It was assigned to Natica by Oppenheim (1900); to Polinices by Clark and Arnold (1923); to Ampullariidae by Olsson (1931); to Naticidae by Woods (1922), Hanna (1927), Nagao (1928), Turner (1938), Abbass (1967) and Ladd (1977); to Globulariinae by Adegoke (1977); to Neotaenioglossa by Sepkoski (2002); and to Ampullinidae by Pacaud and Le Renard (1995) and Devries (2019).
