Ichnological evidence for meiofaunal bilaterians from the terminal Ediacaran and earliest Cambrian of Brazil [PDF]

open access: yes
The evolutionary events during the Ediacaran–Cambrian transition (~541 Myr ago) are unparalleled in Earth history. The fossil record suggests that most extant animal phyla appeared in a geologically brief interval, with the oldest unequivocal bilaterian ...

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Geology
: Sedimentary rocks of the Sete Lagoas Formation, exposed in the left margin of the São Francisco river (Minas Gerais State, Brazil), were deposited on the Januária-Itacarambi basement high.

Depositional facies and platform architecture of microbialite-dominated carbonate reservoirs, Ediacaran–Cambrian Ara Group, Sultanate of Oman [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Intrasalt carbonates of the Ediacaran–Cambrian Ara Group constitute a significant reservoir element of the intrasalt “stringer” play in Oman, in which dolomitic carbonates are encased in salt at depths of 3 to 7 km (1.9 to 4.3 mi).

The importance of Nama Group sediments and fossils to the debate about animal origins [PDF]

open access: yes, 1997
Main articleThe purpose of this review is to draw attention to the contribution that Nama sediments and fossils have made, and potentially can make, to the ongoing debate about metazoan origins.

Role of low intensity environmental disturbance in structuring the earliest (Ediacaran) macrobenthic tiered communities [PDF]

open access: yes
Rangeomorphs were important components of Ediacaran macrobenthic ecosystems, yet their biology and ecology remain poorly constrained. They formed high-density, tiered communities that were subjected to intermittent burial events, the largest of which ...

Sedimentary provenance in the southern sector of the São Francisco Basin, SE Brazil

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Geology
: We present new Sm-Nd, U-Pb and Hf isotope geochronological data for the siliciclastic rocks in the southern sector of the São Francisco Basin. An abrupt change in the Sm-Nd data is observed from the Carrancas Formation’s oligomitic conglomerates (TDM ...

Eukaryotic Organisms in Proterozoic Oceans [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The geological record of protists begins well before the Ediacaran and Cambrian diversification of animals, but the antiquity of that history, its reliability as a chronicle of evolution and the causal inferences that can be drawn from it remain subjects

Multiple branching and attachment structures in cloudinomorphs, Nama Group, Namibia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
The Ediacaran-Cambrian cloudinomorphs, which include Cloudina, are the first putative skeletal metazoans. They have a benthic ecology and tubular, organic, or biomineralized stacked funnel morphologies but an unresolved phylogenetic affinity.

O registro fossilífero de metazoários ediacaranos na América do Sul e suas implicações nos estudos sobre origem e complexificação da vida animal

open access: yesGeologia USP. Série Científica, 2013
O Período Ediacarano marca o aparecimento dos primeiros organismos macroscópicos complexos no registro fóssil. Evidências atuais indicam que a biota de Ediacara é composta tanto por animais quanto por grupos de protistas gigantes extintos, além de algas ...
