Gebrayelichthyidae is a family of extinct pycnodontid fish, with a superficially shrimpfish-like appearance that lived during the lower Cenomanian.
[1] The family is composed of two genera, the type genus, Gebrayelichthys, and the monotypic Maraldichthys.
Behind the lower jaw began a deep, laterally flattened abdominal keel, which was also supported in front by a thick, bony stem and was covered at the sides by bone plates.
The trailing edge of the abdominal keel was protected by plate-shaped scales, each with a short, thick spike.
Gebrayelichthys was probably a pelagic fish that ate plankton and small nectonic animals.
