Eucleaspis Munting 1968a: 423. Type species: Eucleaspis echinata Munting by monotypy and original designation . accepted valid name

Systematics: Subfamily DIASPIDINAE Tribe LEPIDOSAPHIDINI (Normark, et al., 2019) Eucleaspis resembles Mancaspis, but may be distinguished by the presence of gland spines, of ducts over the entire dorsum and by the shape of the female scale which, in Eucleaspis, covers the entire adult female. It also bears some resemblance to certain species of Situlaspis, from which it may be distinguished in that the median lobes are well separated, the absence of macroducts between these lobes, the presence of macroducts over the entire dorsum and in having the anal orifice near the base of the pygidium (Munting, 1968a).
