Bivalved arthropods from the Lower Cambrian Mernmerna Formation, Arrowie Basin, South Australia and their implications for identification of Cambrian 'small shelly fossils'
An assemblage of bivalved arthropods from the Memmema Formation on 'Angorichina' Station in the Flinders Ranges, South Australia contains six bradoriid species, one phosphatocopid, and the spine of 'Isoxys'. The assemblage includes several species that facilitate correlation with...
