The graceful priapella (Priapella bonita), also known by its original Spanish name guayacon ojiazul, is a species of freshwater fish within the Poeciliidae family. It is considered to be extinct, as searches after 1950 have failed to relocate it. It was endemic to a small part of central Veracruz in Mexico.[2]
