'''''Skenidioides''''' is an extinct genus of brachiopods which existed during the Ordovician, Silurian, and Devonian of what is now Australia, Canada, China, the Czech Republic, Italy, Morocco, Poland, Ukraine, the United States, Belarus, Estonia, Lithuania, Mexico, Norway, Sweden, the United Kingdom, Venezuela, Ireland, Kazakhstan, the Russian Federation, and Argentina. It was described by Schuchert and Cooper in 1931, and the type species is ''S. billingsi''. A new species, ''S. tatyanae'', was described by Andrzej Baliński in 2012, from the early Devonian of Ukraine. The species epithet refers to Tatyana Lvovna Modzalevskaya.<ref name=Balinski>{{Cite journal|author=Andrzej Baliński |year=2012 |title=The brachiopod succession through the Silurian–Devonian boundary beds at Dnistrove, Podolia, Ukraine |journal=Acta Palaeontologica Polonica |volume=57 |issue=4 |pages=897–924 |url=http://app.pan.pl/article/item/app20110138.html |doi=10.4202/app.2011.0138 |doi-access=free }}</ref>
