Neomphaloidea is a superfamily of deep-sea snails or limpets, marine gastropod mollusks in the clade Vetigastropoda (according to the taxonomy of the Gastropoda by Bouchet & Rocroi, 2005). They are commonly known as "hydrothermal vent limpets".

The other superfamily of hydrothermal vent limpets is the Lepetodriloidea.
