Name: Porpita porpita
Phylum: Cnidaria Class: Hydroza
Age: Ediacaran Period - 580 Million Years Old
Size: The fossils are ½” to 5/8” in diameter
Fossil Location: Ranford Formation, Kunnunarra, West Australia
Comments: This putative Cnidarian comes from the Ranford formation of Australia. It dates to the Ediacaran Period, nearly 40 million years before the Cambrian Explosion. Like most Ediacaran fossils, whether they are truly fossils or pseudofossils is debated and equivocal. For these, some argue they are cnidarian medusaforms and some that they are non-biogenically produced artifacts.

They bear a striking resemblance to the extant pelagic cnidarian porpita (or blue button). The Ediacaran biota include the oldest definite multicellular organisms with tissues, and the most common types resemble segmented worms, fronds, disks, or immobile bags. They bear little resemblance to modern lifeforms, and their relationship even with the later life forms of the Cambrian explosion is difficult to interpret. The evolutionary divergence of cnidarian and bilaterian lineages from their remote metazoan ancestor occurred at an unknown depth in time before the Cambrian, since crown group representatives of each are found in Lower Cambrian fossil assemblages. The multicellular cnidarians evolved early on earth and despite their primitive nature have endured for hundreds of million of years since. It remains uncertain whether bilaterians evolved from early cnidarians or from the hypothesized triploblastic ancestors of cnidarians. These fossils are very rare and have been legally collected.

Name: Plumulites
Phylum Annelida, Order Turrilepadomorpha, Family Plumulititidae
Age: Ordovician (Machaeridian)
Size: The Plumulites is a large 1 7/8” in length
Fossil Location: Lower Ktaova, Mecissi, Morocco
Plumulites was a slug like Metazoan, or, armored worm. The armoured annelid worm is the relative of the modern-day earthworm, leech and bristleworm. They have only recently been quarried and brought to the fossil market place. Generally, the preservation of the fossils is sketchy and poor, as they were soft-bodied. This specimen is well preserved presenting a bright rust/orange color displaying excellent detail of the feathery appendages. The spinal cord is clearly evident.
