Abstract
The Khuvsgul phosphorites became the first model object of bacterial paleontology. During their study, techniques were developed for preparing samples for viewing on a scanning electron microscope and for screening the samples for the presence of identified fossil bacteria. Due to the wide variety of fossils found, different forms of bacteria preservation were identified, and the conditions of their formation were explored.
期刊介绍:
Paleontological Journal (Paleontologicheskii zhurnal) is the principal Russian periodical in paleontology. The journal publishes original work on the anatomy, morphology, and taxonomy of fossil organisms, as well as their distribution, ecology, and origin. It also publishes studies on the evolution of organisms, ecosystems, and the biosphere and provides invaluable information on global biostratigraphy with an emphasis on Eastern Europe and Asia.
