Unique diversity of acanthothoracid placoderms (basal jawed vertebrates) in the Early Devonian of the Prague Basin, Czech Republic: A new look at Radotina and Holopetalichthys.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2017
The taxonomy of Early Devonian placoderm material from the Lochkovian and Pragian of the Prague basin, previously attributed to the genera Radotina and Holopetalichthys, is revised.

The late Silurian Xiaoxiang Vertebrate Fauna in South China inhabited a tropical nearshore marine environment

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution
The late Silurian Xiaoxiang Vertebrate Fauna, represented by the gnathostome placoderms Entelognathus and Qilinyu, as well as the osteichthyans Guiyu and Megamastax, is mainly hosted in the Ludlow Kuanti Formation in the Qujing area, East Yunnan, South ...

The Evolution of the Zygomatic Bone From Agnatha to Tetrapoda

open access: yes, 2016
Establishing the homology of the zygomatic or jugal bone and tracing its origin and early evolution represents a complex issue because of large morphological gaps between various groups of vertebrates.

Evidence for Placoderms from the Mid-Palaeozoic Sandon Beds of North-western New South Wales, Australia

open access: yes
Armoured jawed fishes known as placoderms are a well-documented group with a fossil record spanning the Silurian to end-Devonian. They have a global distribution and a marked diversity within Devonian deposits of Australia. Despite their notable Gondwanan

Data from: Evolutionary origins of teeth in jawed vertebrates: conflicting data from acanthothoracid dental plates (‘Placodermi’)

open access: yes, 2017
Placoderms (Devonian fossil fishes) are resolved phylogenetically to the base of jawed vertebrates and provide important evidence for evolutionary origins of teeth, particularly with respect to the Arthrodira. The arthrodires represent a derived group of

Exceptional preservation of nerve and muscle tissues in Late Devonian placoderm fish and their evolutionary implications

open access: yes, 2015
In this paper, we show exceptional three-dimensionally preserved fossilized muscle tissues in 380-384Myr old placoderm fish (Late Devonian), offering new morphological evidence supporting the hypothesis that placoderms are the sister group to all other ...
