The Glypheoidea (containing the glypheoid lobsters) is a group of lobster-like decapod crustaceans which forms an important part of fossil faunas such as the Solnhofen limestone. These fossils included taxa such as Glyphea (from which the group takes its name) and Mecochirus mostly with elongated (often semichelate) chelipeds.
