Amiskwia (from Cree amiskwi meaning "beavertail") is an extinct genus of large stem-group arrow worms known from fossils from the Burgess Shale Formation and the Maotianshan shales of Yunnan Province, China. So far this genus contains two species: A. sagittiformis (meaning "arrow-shaped beavertail") and A. sinica (meaning "beavertail from China").
