Products description

Here is a inexpensive example of a "Vendian Ediacara Fossil" of the species Kimberella quadrata a from the Verkhovka Formation of the Solza River fossil site.

The systematic position of the genus Kimberella is still controversial, as with almost all Ediacaran fossils. After the classical interpretation is Kimberella a medusa like Coelenterata. This interpretation is due more and better preserved specimens obsolete today.
Today is Kimberella associated with the molluscs with some reservation.
