Polititapes is a genus of marine bivalve molluscs in the subfamily Tapetinae of the family Veneridae, commonly known as carpet shells. Taxonomy Polititapes aureus and allied are usually held in Venerupis but this is not unequivocally supported; Huber (2010) is here followed in using Polititapes as valid genus, awaiting a much needed phylogenetic revision of the group. Polititapes was published February, 1900 and therefore has priority over Callistotapes Sacco, 1900 (published April 29, 1900) in case they are considered synonyms.
