Los téutidos (Teuthida) son un orden de moluscos cefalópodos conocidos vulgarmente como calamares (debido a su "hueso" calcáreo, conocido como pluma o caña = calamus en latín).​ Contiene dos subórdenes, Myopsina y Oegopsina (el último incluye a Architeuthis dux, el calamar gigante y a Mesonychoteuthis hamiltoni o calamar colosal). Son animales marinos y carnívoros.
