Frontiers in Earth Science, 2021 Acritarchs, a polyphyletic group of acid-resistant organic-walled microfossils, dominate the eukaryotic microfossil record in the Proterozoic (2500–541 Ma) yet exhibit significant reduction in diversity and size at the transition to the Phanerozoic (541 ...

The evolution of reproduction in Ediacaran-Cambrian metazoans. [PDF]
Biol Rev Camb Philos SocABSTRACT The evolution of reproductive style is a fundamental aspect of metazoan life history but has not been explored holistically through the Ediacaran–Cambrian rise of metazoans. Recent molecular clock analyses based on only unequivocal metazoan fossil calibrations suggest that Porifera were present by at least 590 million years ago (Ma), all major

Paleontological Evidence for Dinoflagellates and Ciliates as Early Eukaryotes
Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2023 Molecular trees and geochemical markers suggest the divergence of dinoflagellates as early eukaryotes (~650 million years ago), but the traditional fossil record of cysts (dinocysts) starts during the Triassic (~230 million years ago). A re-evaluation of

New data on acritarchs from the Upper Ordovician of the Tungus basin, Siberian Platform [PDF]
Estonian Journal of Earth Sciences, 2014 Distinctive late Ordovician acritarch assemblages have been discovered for the first time from about a 100 m sedimentary succession exposed along the Bol¢shaya Nirunda River in Siberia.

Chronostratigrahy of Acritarchs and Chitinozoans from upper Ordovician Strata from the Robat-e Gharabil Area, NE Alborz Mountains, Northern Khorassan Province: Stratigraphic and Paleogeographic Implications [PDF]
Journal of Sciences, Islamic Republic of Iran, 2018 The Palaeozoic rock units mainly, Ghelli, Niur, Padeha, Khoshyeilagh and Mobark formations are well-exposed in the north of Robat-e Gharabil village. 116 out of 157 surface samples were analyzed to determine aged relationships of Ghelli Formation.
