Artediellus is a genus of marine ray-finned fishes belonging to the family Psychrolutidae, the marine sculpins. Most of the fishes in this genus are found in the northern Pacific Ocean but they also occur in the Arctic and North Atlantic Oceans.

==Taxonomy== Artediellus was first proposed as a monospecific genus in 1885 by the American ichthyologist David Starr Jordan with Cottus uncinatus, which was described in 1834 from Greenland by the Danish zoologist Johan Reinhardt, as its only species and designated as its type species. The 5th edition of Fishes of the World classifies the genus Artediellus within the subfamily Cottinae of the family Cottidae, however, other authors classify the genus within the subfamily Psychrolutinae of the family Psychrolutidae.
