Glaessnericaris is an extinct genus of lobster-like decapod crustaceans that is the sole member of the family Glaessnericaridae[3] 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[2] species, Glaessnericaris macrochela (the type species[2]) and Glaessnericaris dubia, which was originally assigned to the genus Protoclytiopsis.[4]
