Its fossils have been found in the Late Emsian-aged marine strata of the Jiucheng and Haikou Formations in Wuding, Yunnan. It was originally described as a phlyctaeniid. Later, after comparison with the Chinese Buchanosteus guanxianesis, Exutaspis was reappraised as a buchanosteid. The holotype, a "head roof," is {{convert|21|cm|in|abbr=on}} long.
