McPheeidae
McPheeidae is a proposed family of extinct ray-finned fishes. This taxonomic group was established to accommodate a number of Mesozoic fish genera that share certain anatomical features, particularly in their skull and fin structures. While the precise phylogenetic relationships of McPheeidae are still a subject of ongoing research, they are generally considered to belong to the teleost lineage, representing an early divergence within this diverse group.
Fossils attributed to McPheeidae have been found in various sedimentary deposits dating back to the Jurassic
The genera included within McPheeidae are diverse in size and habit. Some were relatively small, while others
