Jerzy Dzik (born 25 February 1950) is a Polish paleontologist.
He has described many species, genera, and families of conodonts, including the order Ozarkodinida (in 1976).
In 2003, he described the dinosauriform Silesaurus, from the Triassic of Poland.
Tributes
The conodont genus name Dzikodus Zhang 1998 is a tribute to J. Dzik.
