Pleuropholidae is an extinct family of stem- teleost fish that lived from the Middle Jurassic to the Early Cretaceous. It is one of several families that were historically placed in the paraphyletic order Pholidophoriformes. [1] [2] Pleuropholids can be distinguished from other "pholidophoriforms" by the elongated scales on the sides of their bodies. [1]
