Extinct genus of ray-finned fishes
Mimipiscis is a fossil genus of very primitive ray-finned fishes from the Upper Devonian Gneuda and Gogo formations of Western Australia.
The genus was initially described by Gardiner &amp; Bartram as "Mimia" in 1977, a junior homonym of the skipper butterfly genus "Mimia", which was already established by Evans in 1953. The name "Mimipiscis" derives from the Mimi dreamtime beings of Arnhem Land aboriginal folklore, and the Latin "piscis", meaning fish.
