Kiangsuaspis nankingensis is an extinct phyllocarid crustaceans from Late Silurian China . It was originally described in 1962 by Kiang P'an as an incomplete ventral plate of a cyathaspidid heterostracan agnathan with a unique pattern of raised, sculptured tubercles that fuse together into anastomosing ridges.[4] In 1984, Jiang P'an then reappraised it as a ceratiocaridid crustacean.[1][2][3]
