Gardinerichthys is an extinct genus of freshwater actinopterygian bony fish from the Cisuralian (early Permian) epoch of Germany (Rhineland-Palatine, Saarland), and the middle Permian of India (Jammu and Kashmir). [2] The type species, G. latus, was discovered in Asselian aged layers (Rotliegend). [2]
The genus is named after British palaeontologist and zoologist Brian G. Gardiner (1932–2021), the second part of the name means 'fish' in Greek : ἰχθῦς (ikhthûs).

Korutichthys is an extinct genus of prehistoric marine bony fish that lived during the Lopingian epoch in what is now Krasnoyarsk Krai, Russia. It was first referred to the family Amblypteridae, a view that was later questioned.
Igornella is an extinct genus of prehistoric bony fish that lived during the Gzhelian (Stephanian) to Asselian ages in what is now France (Burgundy).
Gardinerpiscis is an extinct genus of prehistoric actinopterygian fish that lived during the Kungurian age of the early Permian epoch in what is now Kazakhstan. It was originally named "Gardineria" by Kazantseva-Selezneva (1981). Because this genus name was already given to an extant scleractinian coral, the new name Gardinerpiscis was erected for the Permian fish. The genus includes a single species (monotypy): Gardinerpiscis akkolkensis.
