Eophycis ("dawn Phycis") is an extinct genus of prehistoric morid gadiform fish that lived during the early Oligocene epoch in the Paratethys Sea, where it is known from both the eastern and western regions. It represents the oldest fossil record of the Moridae.[1][2]

It contains three species:[2]

Several articulated, well-preserved specimens of E. jamnensis are known from Poland.[2]
