KNIGHTIA.

Knightia is an extinct genus of bony fish that lived in the freshwater
lakes and rivers of North America and Asia during the Eocene epoch.
Knightia belongs to the same taxonomic family as herring and sardines,
and resembled the former closely enough that both
Knightia alta and Knightia eocaena were originally described
as species of true herring in the genus Clupea.
It is thought that Knightia likely fed on algae and diatoms,
as well as insects and occasionally smaller fish.
