Extinct order of fishes From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Coccosteina is an extinct infraorder of placoderms, armored fish most diverse during the Devonian.[1] However, the term is no longer in use, as modern cladistical methods have produced alternative phylogenetic trees of Brachythoraci with new subdivisions.[2][3][4]
