Ebenaqua is an extinct genus of bobasatraniiform bony fish that lived during the Lopingian (late Permian) epoch, of what is now Blackwater, Queensland, Australia. [1] Fossils are found in the Rangal Coal Measures, [3] which are Changhsingian in age. [2] Its type and only species is Ebenaqua ritchiei. [3]

<span class="mw-page-title-main">Bobasatraniiformes</span> Extinct order of fishes

Bobasatraniiformes is an extinct order of durophagous ray-finned fish that existed from the late Permian to the Middle Triassic in both marine and freshwater environments. The order includes two families: Bobasatraniidae, with the genera Bobasatrania, Ebenaqua, and Ecrinesomus, and Dorypteridae, comprising only the genus Dorypterus (monotypy). Bobasatraniiformes had a somewhat global distribution; fossils are found in Africa (Madagascar), Asia (Pakistan), Australia, Europe, and North America.
