Aquagirl (also Aqua-Girl) is the codename used by several superheroes appearing in American comic books published by DC Comics. The first two versions of the character, debuting in 1959 and then 1963, were introduced as one-off characters and later versions were introduced as supporting characters of Aquaman and the female counterpart of Aqualad.

Tula is the third and definitive version of the character, created by Bob Haney and Nick Cardy and debuted in Aquaman vol. 1 #33 (May–June 1967). A orphaned adopted into one of the royal families of Atlantis, she eventually becomes a romantic interest of the first Aqualad, a notable ally of Aquaman, and served as a member of the Teen Titans until her death during Crisis on Infinite Earths. The fourth incarnation, Lorena Marquez, was introduced in Aquaman vol. 6 #16 (May 2004). A teenage girl of Latina descent, she acquires Atlantean-like powers after being exposed to a serum derived from Aquaman's DNA and eventually assumes the role of Aquagirl, working alongside Aquaman with her exceptionally keen detective abilities and later joins the Teen Titans.
