Cyranorhis is an extinct genus of prehistoric marine ray-finned fish that lived during the Serpukhovian age of the Carboniferous period. One species is known, C. bergeraci in the Bear Gulch Limestone what is now Montana, United States.^[1][2] It is named after French novelist Cyrano de Bergerac.^[3]

It is a member of the Rhadinichthyidae, a family of basal ray-finned fish that was formerly placed in the now-paraphyletic order Palaeonisciformes.^[4] Based on the cladistic analysis by Ren & Xu, Cyranorhis was recovered in a sister group relationship with the Triassic Pteronisculus which may thus represent a late-surviving rhadinichthyid.^[5]
