Abstract
A new genus and species of aglaspidid arthropod, Tremaglaspis unite, is described from the well-known upper Tremadoc locality of Y Garth in North Wales, and compared with other Cambrian and Ordovician taxa. It is remarkable in having a large hypostome, a character shared with other primitive arachnomorphs.
