Westollia

Westollia is an extinct genus of prehistoric bony fish that lived during the Asselian age (Cisuralian/early Permian) in what is now Thuringia, Germany.^[1][2]

The type and only species, Westollia crassa, was first described as Lepidopterus crassus, but because this genus name was preoccupied, a new genus name was given, Westollia, honoring Thomas Stanley Westoll.^[3]
