Abstract

Pycnodontiformes are an extinct order of Actinopterygian fi shes, present from the Late Triassic (Norian) to the Eocene. With their mostly deep, laterally compressed bodies and comparatively large fi ns, these fi shes were mostly highly manoeuvrable reef fi sh. The genus Macromesodon Blake, 1905 (sensu Poyato-Ariza and Wenz, 2004) is divided again in the genus Macromesodon, with Macromesodon macropterus (Agassiz, 1834) as the only species and the genus Apomesodon Poyato-Ariza and Wenz, 2002.
