Aporrhaidae is a family of sea snails commonly called the "pelican's foot snails. " The taxonomy of the Gastropoda by Bouchet & Rocroi, 2005 categorizes Aporrhaidae as marine gastropod mollusks in the clade Littorinimorpha. Aporrhaids are commercially important, especially in traditional fisheries.
