Pteraspidomorphi

Pteraspidomorphi is an extinct class of early jawless fish. They have long been regarded as closely related or even ancestral to jawed vertebrates, but the few characteristics they share with the latter are now considered as primitive for all vertebrates.
==Characteristics==

Pteraspidomorphs are characterized by their massive dermal head armour having large, median, ventral and dorsal plates or shields. 〔Janvier, Philippe (1997) (Pteraspidomorphi ) ''The Tree of Life Web Project''.〕
The fossils show extensive shielding of the head. Many had hypocercal tails in order to generate lift to increase ease of movement through the water for their armoured bodies, which were covered in dermal bone. They also had sucking mouth parts and some species may have lived in fresh water.
Most pteraspidomorphs were marine, but lived very near to the shore, in lagoons and deltas. Some groups are thought to have been fresh water. They were certainly bottom-dewellers, as shown by traces of abrasion of the ventral surface of their headshield.
