متن کاملPaleoecology of the oldest known animal communities: Ediacaran assemblages at Mistaken Point, Newfoundland

متن کاملA U-Pb zircon age constraint on the oldest-recorded air-breathing land animal
The oldest-known air-breathing land animal is the millipede Pneumodesmus newmani, found in the Cowie Harbour Fish Bed at Stonehaven, Scotland. Here we report the youngest, most concordant 238U-206Pb zircon age from ash below the fish bed of 413.7±4.4 Ma (±2σ), whereas the youngest age from a tuffaceous sandstone above the fish bed is statistically indistinguishable at 414.3±7.1 Ma. The Cowie Ha...
