The '''Gonorynchiformes''' {{IPAc-en|g|ɒ|n|ə|ˈ|r|I|N|k|ᵻ|f|ɔːr|m|iː|z}} are an [[order (biology)|order]] of [[Actinopterygii|ray-finned fish]] that includes the important food source, the [[milkfish]] (''Chanos chanos'', family [[Chanidae]]), and a number of lesser-known types, both [[ocean|marine]] and [[freshwater]].

Gonorynchiformes have small mouths and no teeth. They are the sole group in the clade Anotophysi, a subgroup of the superorder [[Ostariophysi]]. They are characterized by a primitive [[Weberian apparatus]] formed by the first three vertebrae and one or more cephalic ribs within the head. This apparatus is believed to be a hearing organ, and is found in a more advanced and complex form in the related [[Cypriniformes|cypriniform]] fish, such as [[carp]].<ref name="Nelson">{{cite book | title = Fishes of the World | last = Nelson | first = Joseph, S. | publisher = John Wiley & Sons, Inc. | year = 2006 | isbn = 0-471-25031-7}}</ref> Also like the cypriniforms, the gonorynchiforms produce a substance from their skin when injured that dissolves into the water and acts an alarm signal to other fish.<ref name=EoF>{{cite book |editor=Paxton, J.R. |editor2=Eschmeyer, W.N.|author= Banister, Keith F.|year=1998|title=Encyclopedia of Fishes|publisher= Academic Press|location=San Diego|pages= 96–97|isbn= 0-12-547665-5}}</ref>

Although many of the families are rather small, there are several fossil genera. This listing of the groups of Gonorynchiformes includes fossil fish with a short description.<ref name="Nelson"/><ref name=":0">{{Citation |last=Taverne |first=Emmanuel Fara, Mireille Gayet, Louis |title=The Fossil Record of Gonorynchiformes |date=2010 |work=Gonorynchiformes and Ostariophysan Relationships |url=https://hal.science/hal-00441945/document |access-date=2024-05-09 |publisher=CRC Press |doi=10.1201/b10194-6/fossil-record-gonorynchiformes-emmanuel-fara-mireille-gayet-louis-taverne |isbn=978-0-429-06156-1}}</ref> They are listed in approximate order of how primitive their characteristics are.
