Dapaloides is an extinct genus of prehistoric estuarine ray-finned fish that lived during the early Oligocene to the early Miocene epoch.[1] Many of the remains now assigned to this genus were previously assigned to Dapalis.[2][3] It was previously classified as a "percichthyid" under a former treatment of the family, but is now treated as an indeterminate perciform.[2][4]
It contains two species known from Europe:
- †D. sieblosensis (Winkler, 1880) - Rupelian to Early Miocene of Germany (=Smerdis sieblosensis Winkler, 1880, S. sandbergeri Winkler, 1880, S. rhoenensis Winkler, 1880, Perca macrantha Winkler, 1880) [body fossils and otoliths][2][3][4]
- †D. miloni Gaudant, 1989 - Rupelian of Brittany, France [body fossils and otoliths][2]
