Arandaspis prionotolepis. This list of prehistoric jawless fish is an attempt to create a comprehensive listing of all genera from the fossil record that have ever been considered to be jawless fish, excluding purely vernacular terms.
Anaspidomorphi (anaspidomorphs) is an extinct superclass of jawless fish. According to the newer taxonomy based on the work of Nelson, Grande and Wilson 2016 [1] and van der Laan 2018, [2] the phylogeny of Anaspidomorphi looks like this: Superclass †Anaspidomorphi. Order †Euphanerida. Family †Euphaneropidae Woodward, 1900

A newfound fossil of a jawless fish is the oldest known vertebrate cranium preserved in 3D. The 455 million-year-old find could illuminate how vertebrate heads evolved.
Euphaneropidae is an extinct family of prehistoric jawless fishes in the extinct order Euphanerida. These fishes are characterised by a greatly elongated branchial apparatus which covers most of the length of the body. Fossils are known from the Lower Silurian and Middle Devonian of Scotland, and the Upper Devonian of Canada.

Fish which have become recently extinct are not usually referred to as prehistoric fish. They were very different from what we have today. They likely were larger and had tougher scales. Lists of various prehistoric fishes include: List of prehistoric jawless fish; List of placoderms; List of acanthodians; List of prehistoric cartilaginous fish
Anaspida ("shieldless ones") is an extinct group of jawless fish that existed from the early Silurian period to the late Devonian period. [2] They were classically regarded as the ancestors of lampreys, [3] but it is denied in recent phylogenetic analysis, [4] although some analysis show these group would be at least related. [5]
