Armadillidae is a family of woodlice, comprising around 80 genera and 700 species. It is the largest family of Oniscidea, and one of the most species-rich families of the entire Isopoda. Armadillids generally have a strongly convex body shape, with some rather shallowly convex.

Armadillids differ from the Armadillidiidae in that the antennae are fully enclosed within the sphere.
