''Rhinodipterus'' is an extinct genus of prehistoric dipnoan sarcopterygian or lobe-finned fish, that lived in the Devonian Period, between 416 and 359 million years ago. It is believed to have inhabited shallow, salt-water reefs,〔(【引用サイトリンク】 url=http://bigpondnews.com/articles/National-Rural/2010/02/10/375_million_year_old_fossil_found_427283.html )〕 and is one of the earliest known examples of marine lungfish. Research published in 2010 based on an exceptionally well-preserved specimen from the Gogo Formation of Australia〔Long & Trinajstic 2010〕 has shown that ''Rhinodipterus'' has cranial ribs attached to its braincase and was probably adapted for air-breathing to some degree. This could be the only case known for a marine lungfish with air-breathing adpatations.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 url=http://rsbl.royalsocietypublishing.org/content/early/2010/02/04/rsbl.2009.1033.full )〕 ==See also==
