Kichkassia is an extinct genus of prehistoric freshwater ray-finned fish from the order Eurynotoidiformes. It contains only a single species, K. furcae, known from the Permian of European Russia.[1][2] The former genus Amblypterina and its type species A. costata are considered a junior synonym of it, although some of its species have also been transferred to Isadia.[2][3]
