Two complete specimens from the Pelsonian(Middle Anisian,Middle Triassic) of Luoping, Yunnan Province,South China are referred to a new actinopterygian genus,Luopingichthys gen.nov., and ascribed to the perleidiform family Polzbergidae based especially on a typical synapomorphy of a peculiar premaxillary-maxiliary complex,i.e.,the fusion between premaxillary and maxillary along the antero-dorsal margin of the maxillary.The new taxon differs from other deep-bodied representatives of the family,Felberia and Stoppania,in its fusiform or deep fusiform body shape; sickle-shaped preopercular with short infraorbital process;lack of modified scales at the base of the anal fin;the short-based dorsal fin;scarcely ornamented scales;and thin anterior teeth.Based on a redescription of the holotype of the taxon Ctenognathichthys hattichi from the Middle Triassic (Ladinian) Prosanto Formation,Canton Graub(u|¨)nden,eastern Switzerland,the only known specimen, which shows the same fusion between premaxillary and maxillary,the systematic position of the species is clarified and the taxon is proposed to be a further representative of the family Polzbergidae, and is transferred to the new genus.
