Ediacaran macrofossils prior to the ~580 Ma Gaskiers glaciation in Newfoundland, Canada
Macrofossils of the inferred protist‐grade organism Palaeopascichnus linearis occur stratigraphically beneath glacial diamictites of the ~580 Ma, Gaskiers‐equivalent, Trinity ‘facies’ of the Rocky Harbour Formation on the Bonavista Peninsula of ...

Cenozoic plant macrofossil sites ofTasmania [PDF]
Tasmania has an outstanding Cenozoic plant fossil record, including several sites of international significance. This paper provides a compendium of macrofossil sites and associated literature. Macrofossils (leaves, fruit, flowers, wood) are known from 59 sites, ranging from Early Eocene to Late Pleistocene in age. Most are Palaeogene to early Neogene,
