Gardinerpiscis is an extinct genus of prehistoric freshwater actinopterygian fish that lived during the Kungurian age of the early Permian epoch in the Kempir Formation of what is now Kazakhstan.[1] It was originally named "Gardineria" by Kazantseva-Selezneva (1981).[2] Because this genus name was already given to an extant scleractinian coral (Gardineria Vaughan, 1907),[3] the new name Gardinerpiscis was erected for the Permian fish.[4] The genus includes a single species (monotypy): Gardinerpiscis akkolkensis.[5]
Gardinerpiscis is named after British palaeontologist and zoologist Brian G. Gardiner (1932 - 2021). The word part piscis is Latin for fish.
