Igornella is an extinct genus of prehistoric freshwater ray-finned fish known from the late Carboniferous and early Permian of Europe. [1]
The following species are known:[2]
- I. comblei Heyler, 1969 - Late Carboniferous/earliest Permian (Gzhelian or Asselian) of France (Igornay Formation)
- I. montcellensis Heyler & Poplin, 1994 - Gzhelian of France (Montceau-les-Mines lagerstätte)
Some studies have suggested that this genus is doubtfully distinct from the co-occurring Igornichthys, but more recent studies have found them to be distinct.[2][3]
