Tuzoia (from Mount Tuzo, a mountain in the Canadian Rockies) is an extinct genus of large bivalved arthropod known from Early to Middle Cambrian marine environments from what is now North America, Australia, China, Europe and Siberia. The large, domed carapace reached lengths of 180 millimetres (7.1 in), making them amongst the largest known Cambrian arthropods.

- Tuzoia (from Mount Tuzo, a mountain in the Canadian Rockies) is an extinct genus of large bivalved arthropod known from Early to Middle Cambrian marine environments from what is now North America, Australia, China, Europe and Siberia. The large, domed carapace reached lengths of 180 millimetres (7.1 in), making them amongst the largest known Cambrian arthropods. Along the sides of the carapace a spiked ridge is present, and the edges of the carapace are also spiked in many species. These spines likely functioned to aid stability while swimming. The carapaces are marked with a reticulate (net-like) pattern, which was likely to increase the structural integrity of the valves while remaining lightweight. They possessed a single pair of large spherical stalked eyes, as well as simple segmented anntennae. There appears to have been a robust pair of segmented frontal appendages close to the head, as well as other pairs of appendages along the trunk. The lifestyle of Tuzoia is thought to have been that of a pelagic freely swimming organism. They were formerly considered to be the only members of the family Tuzoiidae until 2022, when a new genus Duplapex was described from the Cambrian of China, which differs from Tuzoia by having a flat carapace. The exact position of Tuzoia relative to other arthropods is uncertain due to most of their soft tissues being poorly known, though a close relationship between tuzoiids and the bivalved arthropod Isoxys has been proposed based on similarities of their carapaces.
