Scutus is a genus of large sea snails or limpets with the common name "shield shells". These are marine gastropod molluscs in the family Fissurellidae, the keyhole limpets and slit limpets.[1]

Both the common name and the scientific name reflect the fact that the shells of species in this genus resemble a Roman shield.
