Pagetopsis is a genus of marine ray-finned fish belonging to the family Channichthyidae, the crocodile icefishes. The species in this genus are found in the Southern Ocean.
==Taxonomy== Pagetopsis was described as a genus in 1913 by the English ichthyologist Charles Tate Regan as a monotypic genus which had Champsocephalus macropterus, which had been described by the Belgian-born British ichthyologist George Albert Boulenger in 1907, as its only species. The genus name is a combination of opsis with Pagetodes, the name given by John Richardson in 1843 to an icefish frozen on the bow of HMS Terror which had been eaten by a cat before it could be preserved, Regan said that Pagetodes could not be used until that fish was rediscovered.
