Tylopterella is a genus of eurypterid, a group of extinct aquatic arthropods. Only one fossil of the single and type species, T. boylei, has been discovered in deposits of the Late Silurian period (Ludlow epoch) in Elora, Canada. The name of the genus is composed by the Ancient Greek words τύλη (túlē), meaning "knot", and πτερόν (pteron), meaning "wing". The species name boylei honors David Boyle, who discovered the specimen of Tylopterella.
