Strombus is a genus of medium to large sea snails, marine gastropod molluscs in the family Strombidae, which comprises the true snails and their immediate relatives.

Six species live in the greater Caribbean region, including the queen conch, Strombus gigas, and the, Strombus pugilis. However, since 2006, many species have been assigned to discrete genera. These new genera are, however, not yet found in most textbooks and collector's guides.
