42 ADVANCES IN PALAEOICHTHYOLOGY this situation it is surprising that none of the dorsal plates of Obruchevia show any indication of the presence of the sensory canal system. Halstead Tarlo (1964) placed Obruchevia together with Traquairosteus in the Family Obrucheviidae, an arrangement that we agree with here. It is also clear that the new genus Perscheia should be included within this family. Higher level phylogenetic relationships are poorly understood, as no attempt has been made to assess relationships within the Psammosteiformes since the study by Halstead Tarlo (1964). This study was flawed somewhat by the inclusion of a number of early species that are now not considered to be psammosteids, such as Tesseraspis, Corvaspis, and Psephaspis. Halstead Tarlo used a variety of features such as the type of ornamentation, and the shape of the branchial and ventral plates to show that advanced psammosteids derive from Guerichosteus, from the Emsian of central Poland, which subsequently gave rise to two lineages. In one the posterior notch in the ventral plate was deepened and widened, and the branchial plate became broad and triangular (Pycnolepis, Pycnosteus). In the other lineage the posterior ventral notch was progressively eliminated, and the branchial plates became greatly shortened and broadened, forming spine-like plates in some forms (Psammosteus). Obruchevia and Traquairosteus were very incompletely known at the time Halstead Tarlo attempted his analysis of phylogeny; however, he placed them in a tentative relationship with psammolepids based on the fact that the branchial plates were strongly downturned, a feature that is present to a much lesser degree in the psammolepids, and despite the fact that the branchial plates of Obruchevia are long and narrow, not short and broad. The new information presented here shows that both Obruchevia and Perscheia had a ventral plate in which a well-developed posterior notch was present, therefore indicating that the obrucheviids are more likely to be connected to the group including Pycnolepis, Pycnosteus, and Tartuosteus in which this is a major feature. However, until a modern phylogenetic analysis of the Psammosteiformes has been carried out, a study that is beyond the scope of this paper, no firm conclusion can be reached as to the relationship of the obrucheviids.
