context_page_description: This list of prehistoric bony fish is an attempt to create a comprehensive listing of all genera from the fossil record that have ever been considered to be bony fish, excluding purely vernacular terms. The list includes all commonly accepted genera, but also genera that are now considered invalid, doubtful, or were not formally published, as well as junior synonyms of more established names, and genera that are no longer considered members of osteichthyes.
  This list includes 1,386 generic names.
  Extinct genera are marked with a dagger.
  Extant genera are bolded.
