Bourbonnella is an extinct genus of prehistoric freshwater and coastal marine ray-finned fish that lived during the late Mississippian (Carboniferous) and Asselian (Cisuralian/early Permian epoch) in what is now Burgundy (Autun, France), the Czech Republik (Boskovice Graben), and Utah (United States), with other remains known from elsewhere.[1][2] The genus was named by Daniel Heyler in 1967.

It contains the following species:[3]

  • B. fourrieri Poplin, 2001 - Late Pennsylvanian (Stephanian) of France
  • B. guilloti Heyler, 1967 - Early Permian (Asselian) of France
  • B. hirsuta Štamberg, 2007 - Early Permian (Sakmarian) of the Czech Republic
  • B. jocelynae Mickle, 2011[1] - Early Pennsylvanian (Bashkirian) of the United States (Utah)
  • B. sottyi Anonymous, 1972 - Late Pennsylvanian (Stephanian) of France

Indeterminate remains are known from the Carboniferous of the US (New Mexico) and Spain.[3] Specimens from Germany were found in 2001 to belong to Aeduella.[4]

The species B. jocelynae is the earliest known representative of the family Aeduellidae.[1]
