"Rafetus" is a genus of highly endangered softshell turtles in the Trionychidae family. It contains the following species:
* Euphrates Softshell Turtle ("Rafetus euphraticus")
* Shanghai soft-shell turtle ("Rafetus swinhoei")

"Rafetus leloii" (the Hoan Kiem turtle) is a proposed species that is no longer regarded as a valid taxon; it is now considered a junior synonym of "Rafetus swinhoei". [Farkas, B and Webb, R.G. 2003.
