Heterothrissa is an extinct genus of prehistoric marine ray-finned fish that lived during the Late Cretaceous.[1] It contains a single species, H. signeuxae known from the Cenomanian-aged Sannine Formation of Lebanon.[2][3] It was a member of the Ctenothrissiformes, a group of early-diverging acanthomorph relatives.[4]
