Nieszkowskia is a genus of trilobites known from warm-water palaeozooprovinces of Eurasia and North America in the Middle and Late Ordovician. Members of this genus had the glabella conically elongated upwards or bearing a distinct spine, and two pairs of pygidial spines with the second pair reduced in size (Přibyl et al. 1985).
