Chelidae is one of three living families of the turtle suborder Pleurodira, and are commonly called Austro-South American side-neck turtles. The family is distributed in Australia, New Guinea, parts of Indonesia, and throughout most of South America.

The family is entirely Gondwanan in origin, with no members found outside Gondwana, either in the present day or as a fossil.
