Glaessnericaris is an extinct genus of lobster-like decapod crustaceans that is the sole member of the family Glaessnericaridae[2] and lived in what is now the modern day Lombardy region of Northern Italy during the Norian age of the Late Triassic Epoch.[1]

It contains two[3] species, Glaessnericaris macrochela (the type species[3]) and Glaessnericaris dubia, which was originally assigned to the genus Protoclytiopsis.[5]
