Aeduella is an extinct genus of freshwater ray-finned fish that lived during the Gzhelian (Late Pennsylvanian, Carboniferous ) and Asselian-Sakmarian (Cisuralian/early Permian epoch) ages in what is now France (Mayenne, Auvergne, Burgundy and Aveyron), Germany (Baden-Württemberg, Rhineland-Palatine, Saarland), and Switzerland (Basel-Landschaft, Zürich).

The type and only species is Aeduella blainvillei. It is restricted to occurrences in the Autun, Decazeville, Bourbon-l'Archambault, and Saar-Nahe basins.
