Ediacaran macrofossils prior to the ~580 Ma Gaskiers glaciation in Newfoundland, Canada ...
Macrofossils of the inferred protist-grade organism Palaeopascichnus linearis occur stratigraphically beneath glacial diamictites of the ~580 Ma, Gaskiers-equivalent, Trinity ‘facies’ of the Rocky Harbour Formation on the Bonavista Peninsula of Newfoundland, Canada. These fossils significantly pre-d...
