'''''Zychaspis''''' is an extinct genus of Devonian jawless fishes. The genus name, ''Zychaspis'', was named as a tribute to palaeontologist Władysław Zych (1899 – 1981).
==Species== Two species of this genus, ''Z. bucovinensis'' and ''Z. elegans'' are known from the Devonian-aged rocks of Ukraine. ''Z. bucovinensis'' is found only at Babin (Bobince), Podoli Babin Sandstone. ''Z. elegans'' (which was once known as ''Cephalaspis elegans'' (Balabai, 1962)) is found in rocks on the Podolian plateau.<ref>On the cephalaspid fauna of the Podolian plateau.
