Dickinsonia from the Ediacaran Dengying Formation in the Yangtze Gorges area, South China
Dickinsonia is an iconic fossil of the Ediacara biota (similar to 575-539 Ma). It was previously known from siliciclastic successions of the White Sea assemblage in Australia, Baltica, and possibly India. Here we describe Dickinsonia sp. from the terminal Ediacaran Shibantan Member limestone (ca. 55...
