NEW MORPHOLOGICAL INFORMATION ON, AND SPECIES OF PLACODERM FISH AFRICANASPIS (ARTHRODIRA, PLACODERMI) FROM THE LATE DEVONIAN OF SOUTH AFRICA.

New morphological information on, and species of placoderm fish Africanaspis (Arthrodira, Placodermi) from the Late Devonian of South Africa.

Here we present a new species of placoderm fish, Africanaspis edmountaini sp.nov., and redescribe Africanaspis doryssa on the basis of new material collected from the type locality of Africanaspis.The new material includes the first head shields of Africanaspis doryssa in addition to soft anatomy for both taxa.Hitherto Africanaspis was entirely des
