Dalmatichthys is an extinct genus of marine beardfish from the Late Cretaceous. It contains a single species, D. malezi (named for Mirko Malez) from Croatia. [1] It is the only member of the family Dalmatichthyidae, which is sometimes considered synonymous with Polymixiidae. [2] [3] [4] [5] Its exact relationship to modern beardfish in Polymixia likely needs further research. [6]
