Als Hornschuppe bezeichnet man stark verhornte Hautbezirke bei Reptilien, Vögeln sowie manchen Fischen und innerhalb der Säugetiere bei den Schuppentieren. Bei einigen Reptilien werden sie auch als Hornplatten oder Hornschilde bezeichnet. Sie sind von benachbarten Schuppen durch weniger stark verhornte Furchen abgesetzt. Der lateinische Fachbegriff leitet sich vom rechteckigen gewölbten Holzschild der römischen Legionäre, dem Scutum, ab.
