Dussumieriidae is a family of clupeiform fishes popularly called the "round herrings". It is now recognized by FishBase as a family in its own right; it had been considered to be a subfamily of Clupeidae. It contains two extant genera, and some potential fossil genera. Possibly the earliest record of the group is Nardoclupea from the Campanian of Italy.
The following genera are known:
- Dussumieria Valenciennes, 1847
- Etrumeus Bleeker, 1853
- †Paretrumeus Daniltshenko, 1980 (Oligocene of North Caucasus, Russia)
- †Trollichthys Marramà & Carnevale, 2014 (Early Eocene of Italy)
Putative fossil genera include:
- †Nardoclupea Taverne, 2002 (Late Cretaceous of Italy)
- †?Portoselvaggioclupea Taverne, 2007 (Late Cretaceous of Italy)
- †?Pseudoetringus David, 1946 (Late Eocene of California)
