Soederberghia is an extinct genus of prehistoric lungfish that lived during the late Devonian period.

Soederberghia probably had a widespread range because fossils have been discovered in North America, Greenland and Australia.

The long-snouted Soederberghia shares many relationships with the lungfish Rhynchodipterus.

The genus is named after paleontologist Gunnar Säve-Söderbergh.
