Abstract
A revised reconstruction of the dermal skull roof of Acanthostega gunnari from the Upper Devonian of East Greenland is provided, incorporating modifications consequent upon further study of the specimens and in the light of new information from the Upper Devonian genus Ventastega from Latvia. The new reconstruction features a midline gap between the frontal and nasal bones and median rostrals. A revised profile for the skull and a rendition of the dermal ornament is also provided.Keywords
