Frogdenites is an extinct ammonite genus from the order Ammonitida that lived during the Middle Jurassic in what is now Europe, Canada, and Tibet. Frogdenites is included in the Otoitidae, a family which makes up part of the ammonitid superfamily, Stephanocerataceae.

Frogdenites has an evolute globular shell with a deep umbilicus and covered by bifurcating ribs that cross the venter, the outer rim of the shell, without interruption.
