abstract = {The Ellimmichthyiformes is a fossil group of clupeomorphs (Teleostei). They include the genus Paraclupea, Diplomystus, and Ellimmichthys. Paraclupea contains one species, P. chetungensis from the Lower Cretaceous Chawan Formation of eastern China; Diplomystus contains four species, D. dentatus from the lower Eocene freshwater deposits of the Green River Formation, Wyoming, U.S.A., D. shengliensis from the middle Eocene freshwater deposits of eastern China, D. birdi from the Cenomanian (Upper Cretaceous) marine deposits of Hakel and Hjoula, Lebanon, D. dubertreti from the Santonian (Upper Cretaceous) marine deposits of Sahel Alma, Lebanon; Ellimmichthys contains at least three species, E. longicostatus, from the Lower Cretaceous of Bahia, Brazil, E. goodi from the Lower Cretaceous deposits of Equatorial Guinea and at least one undescribed species from the Lower Cretaceous marine deposits of the Morelos Formation, Tepexi de Rodriguez, Puebla, Mexico. A phylogenetic analysis comprising 56 characters for 15 taxa has been made. It is shown that Diplomystus is not monophyletic, and D. dubertreti is more closely related to other Ellimmichthyiformes than to other Diplomystus species; Sorbinichthys elusivo is an ellimmichthyiform. ?Diplomystus? solignaci is also included in the Ellimmichthyiformes. The position of Ezkutuberezi carmeni from the freshwater deposits of the Lower Cretaceous of the Basque Country (Spain) and the undescribed Ellimmichthys from the marine deposits of the Lower Cretaceous of Puebla, Mexico, is analyzed under the proposed hypothesis. The implications of these features regarding clupeomorph phylogeny are discussed. The puzzling biogeographic consequences of the phylogenetic hypothesis proposed are interpreted under the hypothesis of a scarce fossil record concerning basal clupeomorphs. This hypothesis is corroborated by the low correlation between stratigraphic data and phylogenetic hypothesis.}
