Actinolepid material from the lower Devonian of Prince of Wales Island, Arctic Canada, described as Eskimaspis heintzi gen. et sp. nov. closely resembles Kujdanowiaspis and Heightingtonaspis, especially in the pattern of the head shield. In comparison with Baringaspis which is associated with it, it differs mainly in the short nuchal plate and the ornamentation of scattered tubercles.
