Short summary
Wangshangkia, a new genus of Ostracoda, is described from the Late Devonian in Dushan of Guizhou, South China. This genus belongs to the family Bairdiocyprididae Shaver, 1961 and includes two new species, i.e. Wangshangkia dushaniensis and W. bailouiensis. The new genus is characterized by a wide ventral carina with radial striae. It is reported from the Famennian of South China and disappeared just below the Devonian–Carboniferous boundary. Wangshangkia is essentially a benthic crawler.
