Systematics: Achionaspis kanoi is similar to Pseudaulacaspis pentagona, but is distinguished from the latter on account of the distribution and arrangement of the dorsal macroducts (Takagi, 1970).
Structure: Median lobes comparatively very large, almost entirely sunken into the pygidium, forming a distinct notch on the apex of the latter, elongate, divergent, with the margin rather roughly serrate. 2nd lobes much smaller than the median lobes, yet well developed, with both lobules elongate, the outer lobule a little smaller than the inner. 3rd lobes also well developed, but less sclerotized than the median and 2nd lobes, both lobules broader than those of the 2nd lobe, notched on the outer or either side. Pygidial margin serrate laterally to the 3rd lobe as far as the apex of the lateral lobe of the 3rd abdominal segment (Takagi, 1970).
General Remarks: Detailed description and illustration by Takagi (1970).
