Vultocinus anfractus is a species of crab the only species in the family Vultocinidae. It has been found around the Philippines Vanuata and New Caledonia and lives on driftwood. Its discovery forced a reappraisal of the relationships within the superfamily Goneplacoidea and to the recognition of Mathildellidae Conleyidae and Progeryonidae as separate families.
