Grandes hitos de la Explosión Cámbrica: asociación bentónica macrobioclástica en el Piso cámbrico inferior 2 del Olenek Uplift, Siberia ártica
The basal Cambrian Stage 2 strata of the Olenek Uplift host diverse assemblages of macroscopic fossils, which closely resemble certain small skeletal taxa early reported from this section and typical for the Terreneuvian Epoch. Herein studied macroscopic assemblage includes helcionellid, stenothecid and kharkhaniid molluscs, and anabaritids and circothecid hyoliths. Among the assemblage, only anabaritids and some citrcothecid hyoliths exhibit relics of calcite shell, whereas most of the fossils reveal no evidence of rigid biomineralized exoskeleton. Hence, at least these problematic Cambrian organisms had reached macroscopic sizes (up to 35 mm long) and were covered with calcite shells at the very beginning of the Cambrian Age 2.
期刊介绍:
Since 1945 Estudios Geologicos publishes original research works, as well as reviews, about any topic on Earth Sciences.
Estudios Geologicos is published as one yearly volume, divided into two half-yearly issues. It is edited by the Spanish National Research Council (Consejo Superior de Investigaciones Científicas, CSIC) at the Instituto de Geociencias (CSIC-UCM).
Estudios Geologicos provides free access to full-text articles through this electronic edition. Accepted articles appear online as "Forthcoming articles" as soon as the galley proofs have been approved by the authors and the Editor-in-Chief. No changes can be made after online publication.
