文摘
- •
Transitional Ediacaran–Cambrian skeletal fauna found in South China and Kazakhstan.
- •
New fauna first occurs in basal Cambrian cherty sediments (Daibu and Aksai members).
- •
Cloudinids (Cloudina and Rajatubulus gen. nov.) persisted into the early Cambrian.
- •
New fauna reveals a less abrupt faunal change at the Pc–C boundary than thought.
