Ostracodermi
Ostracodermi (ostracoderms) The name often used in older textbooks for the fossil, armoured, jawless, agnathan fish of the
Ordovician to early
Carboniferous Periods. Probably the name indicates only a grade of development; some ostracoderms are close to the line of ancestry of the living
Agnatha (lamprey and hagfish), others to the origin of the jawed vertebrates. The informal version of the name survives. See also
CEPHALASPIDOMORPHI;
PTERASPIDOMORPHI.
