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). [1] The type species, G. latus, was discovered in Asselian aged layers (Rotliegend). [1]
The genus is named after British palaeontologist and zoologist Brian G. Gardiner (1932–2021), with the second part of the name meaning 'fish' in Greek : ἰχθῦς (ikhthûs).
Australosomus is an extinct genus of prehistoric ray-finned fish that lived during the Early Triassic epoch in what is now Greenland, Kenya, Tanzania, Madagascar, South Africa and Canada.
Dictyopyge is an extinct genus of prehistoric freshwater ray-finned fish that inhabited eastern North America during the early part of the Late Triassic. Two species are recognized, both from the early Carnian-aged Doswell Formation in what is now Virginia, United States:
Neuburgella is an extinct genus of prehistoric bony fish that lived during the Cisuralian epoch in what is now Kazakhstan.
Rhabdolepis is an extinct genus of prehistoric bony fish that lived during the Asselian age of the Cisuralian epoch in what is now Germany and France (Burgundy).
Inichthys is an extinct genus of prehistoric marine bony fish that lived during the Lopingian epoch. Fossils were recovered in the Kuznetsk Basin, European Russia.
Paralogoniscus is an extinct genus of prehistoric bony fish that lived during the Cisuralian epoch in what is now East Kazakhstan, Kazakhstan. It could reach body lengths of up to ca. 50 cm (20 in).
Tienshaniscus is an extinct genus of prehistoric bony fish that lived during the Lopingian epoch in what is now Xinjiang, China.
Trachelacanthus is an extinct genus of prehistoric bony fish that lived during the Late Permian epoch.
Aeduella is an extinct genus of prehistoric freshwater bony fish that lived during the Gzhelian and Asselian-Sakmarian ages in what is now France, Germany, Switzerland and the Czech Republik.
Alleiolepis is an extinct genus of prehistoric bony fish, which lived during the Ladinian age of the Middle Triassic epoch in what is now Franconia, Germany. It is generally considered a semionotiform. It was first named Leiolepis, but because this genus name is preoccupied by an extant lizard, the genus name of the Triassic fish was changed to Aleiolepis.
Charleuxia is an extinct genus of prehistoric freshwater ray-finned fish that lived during the Asselian age in what is now Burgundy, France (Autun). It may possibly belong to the genus Paramblypterus.
Westollia is an extinct genus of prehistoric bony fish that lived during the Asselian age in what is now Thuringia, Germany.
Urosthenes is an extinct genus of prehistoric bony fish that lived during the Lopingian to Middle Triassic epochs in what is now New South Wales, Australia.
Uydenia is an extinct genus of prehistoric bony fish from the Cisuralian of Kazakhstan.
Gyrolepis is an extinct genus of prehistoric ray-finned fish from the Middle-Late Triassic epochs in what is now Europe. It is known both from complete specimens and isolated skeletal elements, such as scales or teeth.
Eurynotoides is an extinct genus of prehistoric bony fish in the family Eurynotoididae of the order Eurynotoidiformes.
Eigilia is an extinct genus of prehistoric bony fish that lived during the Roadian age in what is now Kazakhstan.
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.
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.
Acropholis is an extinct genus of prehistoric marine bony fish that lived during the Wuchiapingian age in what is now Greenland and Hesse (Germany).
