The 438–370-million-year-old galeaspids, diversified armoured jawless vertebrates (‘ostracoderms’) from China and northern Vietnam, were assumed to have a benthic feeding habit in a coastal, marine environment. Here, we describe two new genera of galeaspid fishes, Platylomaspis gen. nov. and Nanningaspis gen. nov. from the Middle Palaeozoic of Chin...

... Galeaspida is a diversified jawless clade known exclusively in the Silurian-Devonian strata of Tarim, North China, and South China blocks (Janvier, 1996;Zhao, 2005;Zhu and Gai, 2006;Janvier et al., 2009;Zhao et al., 2009;Gai et al., 2018). Fossil records suggest that galeaspids underwent the first diversification in Tarim and South China blocks during the early Telychian, with the occurrence of three basal clades Dayongaspidae, Hanyangaspidae, and Xiushuiaspidae, the most basal clade of Eugaleaspiforme (Shuyuidae), and the most basal clade of Polybranchiaspiforme (Gumuaspidae) (Shan et al., 2022b). ...
