Palaeolatitudinal distribution of the Ediacaran macrobiota
Macrofossils of the late Ediacaran Period (c. 579–539 Ma) document diverse, complex multicellular eukaryotes, including early animals, prior to the Cambrian radiation of metazoan phyla. To…
A quantitative and statistical discrimination of morphotaxa within the Ediacaran genus Palaeopascichnus
The palaeopascichnids are a relatively abundant component of the Ediacara biota. The eponymous Palaeopascichnus delicatus consists of serially arranged, millimetre‐scale allantoid chambers that have…
Simple sediment rheology explains the Ediacara biota preservation
TLDR
It is shown that Flinders-style fossilization of Ediacaran organisms was promoted by unusually prolonged conservation of organic matter, coupled with differences in rheological behaviour of the over- and underlying sediments, and that sedimentary flows constrained Ediacara biota preservation and that Ediacaren fossils do not necessarily reflect the external shape of the organism.

Ediacaran biozones identified with network analysis provide evidence for pulsed extinctions of early complex life
Rocks of Ediacaran age (~635–541 Ma) contain the oldest fossils of large, complex organisms and their behaviors. These fossils document developmental and ecological innovations, and suggest that…
Organically-preserved multicellular eukaryote from the early Ediacaran Nyborg Formation, Arctic Norway
TLDR
Unexpected organically-preserved fossils from mudrocks are described, that provide support for the presence of organisms with differentiated cells (potentially an epithelial layer) in the late Neoproterozoic.

Potencial de correlación estratigráfica de los paleopasciquínidos del Ediacárico
For more than forty years, palaeopascichnids represented an enigmatic group of macroscopic fossils, which are characterised by substantial differences in preservation leading to no consistent…

Possible early foraminiferans in post-Sturtian (716−635 Ma) cap carbonates
Foraminifera are an ecologically important group of modern heterotrophic amoeboid eukaryotes whose naked and testate ancestors are thought to have evolved ∼1 Ga ago. However, the single-chambered…

Abstract Non-biomineralizing Ediacaran macrofossils are rare in carbonate facies, but they offer valuable information about their three-dimensional internal anatomy and can broaden our view about…
Testing the protozoan hypothesis for Ediacaran fossils: a developmental analysis of Palaeopascichnus
TLDR
Developmental analysis of the Palaeopascichnus reveals unusual, protozoan features, including evidence for chaotic repair structures, for mergence of coeval forms, as well as complex bifurcations, which suggest that Palaeobiology is a body fossil of an unidentified protozoa but is unrepresentative of Ediacaran body construction, in general.
