The Nodosinellacea is a superfamily of fusulinds (microganular foraminifera) in which the test is of one or more distinct chambers with the wall single layered or with a microgranular outer layer and fibrous inner layer. Differs from the Geinitzinacea in that the latter has the layers reversed.

The Nodosinellacea, which has a stratigraphic range from the Upper Silurian to the Permian, includes two families, the Earlandinitidae and the Nodosinellidae.
