Stauroteuthis is a genus of deepwater cirrate octopus, a cephalopod mollusk. This is the only genus in the family Stauroteuthidae, and only three species have been described in this genus.

The organisms live below 700 m water depth; although sometimes found as deep as 4 km underwater, they generally live at a water depth of around 2 km. They do not possess a radula.
