Kujdanowiaspis is an extinct genus of arthrodire placoderm fish from the Early Devonian of Podolia (Ukraine), Poland and Spain.[1][2][3] Kujdanowiaspis is known from many fragmentary head shields and body armours.[4]

Classification

Preserved spinal plate and thoracic shield

Kujdanowiaspis consists of three species, all described in 1934: Kujdanowiaspis buczacziensis (type species), Kujdanowiapsis podolica, and Kudjanowiaspis rectiformis - although the independent status of K. rectiformis is in doubt, and is instead most likely K. podolica.[4][5][6] Kujdanowiaspis zychi was also named and described by Stensiö in 1945, but was reassigned to the new genus Erikaspis in 2007.[4][5]

Kujdanowiaspis is one of the more basal members of the order Arthrodira, as shown in the cladogram below:[7]

Eurycaraspis incilis

Lunaspis broilii

Arthrodira
Actinolepidoidei
Phlyctaeniina


Description

Because of the poor preservation of Kujdanowiaspis fossils, little is known about its physiology. What is known about it is typical of actinolepid placoderms, and it can compared to the better known primitive arthrodires such as Dicksonosteus or Actinolepis. It had a very pronounced, serrated spinal plate, giving it an almost lunate dorsal silhouette.[4]

The body of Kujdanowiaspis is slightly wider than high, with large spinal plates protruding laterally, suggesting a benthic lifestyle. The body armour of the genus Erikaspis is much flatter.[5]

Its jaws were comparatively underdeveloped in comparison to the more robust-jawed arthrodires that would come after it, such as Dunkleosteus and Coccosteus, indicating that it likely subsisted primarily on smaller, softer-bodied animals such as mollusks or worms instead of larger, tougher prey animals.
