This article is about the genus of snapping shrimp. For the cultic epithet of the Greek god Poseidon, see Asphaleius.

Alpheus is a genus of snapping shrimp of the family Alpheidae. This genus contains in excess of 330 species,[1] making this the most species-rich genus of shrimp.[2] Like other snapping shrimp, the claws of Alpheus are asymmetrical, with one of the claws enlarged for making a popping noise.[3] Some species in the genus enter into symbiotic relationships with gobiid fishes,[4] and others associate with sea anemones.[5]
