Abstract

The chondrostean redfieldiiform fish Helichthys, from the Triassic of Bekker's Kraal, South Africa, is redescribed. The genus is monospecific and five species are synonymized with the type-species H. browni. The possible phylogenetic position of the genus within the Redfieldiiformes is discussed.
