Biology:Dactylopogon
From HandWiki
Dactylopogon is an extinct genus of prehistoric marine ray-finned fish that lived during the Late Cretaceous.[1] It contains a single species, D. grandis from the Campanian of the Ahlen Formation of Germany. It was previously considered a myctophiform, but more recent studies have found it to be an elopomorph.[2][3][4] A second species, D. parvulus from the Cenomanian-aged Sannine Formation in Lebanon has also sometimes been placed in this genus.[2]
