Eolamprogrammus ("dawn Lamprogrammus") is an extinct genus of prehistoric marine cusk-eel that lived during the earliest Eocene. It contains a single species, E. senectus from the earliest Ypresian-aged Danata Formation of Turkmenistan. It may potentially represent an early member of the Neobythitinae.
