Rhabdoderma is an extinct genus of coelacanth fish in the class Sarcopterygii. It lived in the Carboniferous and Early Triassic ( Induan), and its fossils have been found in Europe, Madagascar and North America. [1] [3] The type species was originally described as Coelacanthus elegans. Five species are considered valid in 1981. [4]
