Eichstaettia ("of Eichstätt") is an extinct genus of marine ray-finned fish that lived during the early Tithonian stage of the Late Jurassic epoch.^[1]^[2] It contains a single species, E. mayri from the Eichstätt Formation of Germany, which is part of the wider Solnhofen Limestone.^[3] It was an early stem-group elopiform, making it distantly related to modern tarpons and ladyfish.^[4]^[5] It was initially described as a species of Anaethalion.^[2]
