Spondylus is a genus of bivalve mollusks, the only genus in the family Spondylidae. As well as being the systematic name, Spondylus is the most often used common name for these animals, though they are also known as thorny oysters or spiny oysters. There are many species of Spondylus, and they vary considerably in appearance and range.

- Spondylus is a genus of bivalve mollusks, the only genus in the family Spondylidae. As well as being the systematic name, Spondylus is the most often used common name for these animals, though they are also known as thorny oysters or spiny oysters. There are many species of Spondylus, and they vary considerably in appearance and range. They are grouped in the same superfamily as the scallops, but like the true oysters (family Ostreidae) they cement themselves to rocks, rather than attaching themselves by a byssus. Their key characteristic is that the two parts of their shells are hinged together with a ball and socket type of hinge, rather than a toothed hinge as is more common in other bivalves. Spondylus have multiple eyes around the edges of the shell, and they have a relatively well developed nervous system. Their nervous ganglia are concentrated in the visceral region, with recognisable optic lobes, connected to the eyes. Spondylus shells are much sought after by collectors, and there is a lively commercial market in them.
- Die Stachelaustern, auch Klappmuscheln (Spondylus) sind eine weltweit in den wärmeren Meeren verbreitete Muschelgattung. Sie bilden die einzige Gattung der Familie Spondylidae, die zur Ordnung der Pectinoida gestellt wird. Die ältesten fossilen Formen dieser Muscheln sind aus dem Jura bekannt.
- Spondylus es un género de moluscos bivalvos propios de las costas de Perú y Ecuador. Sus colores varían entre naranja, rojo y púrpura, tiene ciertas espinas o protuberancias en su concha, la cual las hace atractivas.
