Fukangichthys is an extinct genus of prehistoric freshwater ray-finned fish that lived during the Middle Triassic epoch. It contains a single species, F. longidorsalis from the Anisian-aged Kelamayi Formation of Xinjiang, China. It is a member of the Scanilepiformes, a group of basal ray-finned fish that were previously placed in the Neopterygii, but are now generally thought to be cladistians related to the modern bichirs.
