Narrominaspis longi is an extinct buchanosteid arthrodire placoderm. Its fossils, and those of the acanthothoracid, Connemarraspis , have been found in the late Lochkovian-aged marine strata of the Connemarra Formation in Australia.
It is considered a basal buchanosteid.
Dunkleosteidae is an extinct family of arthrodire placoderms that lived during the Devonian period. The gigantic apex predator Dunkleosteus terrelli is the best known member of this group.
