چکیده

THE SANDU FORMATION, consisting mainly of mudstone and marl, crops out sparsely in Guole Township, Jingxi County, southwestern Guangxi Province, China (Fig. 1). It yields a rich fauna of trilobite fossils, including species belonging to Shergoldia, Tamdaspis and Sinosaukia, which together indicate a late Furongian (latest Cambrian) age. These fossils are both abundant and well preserved. A large proportion of the material comprises articulated specimens, and a variety of ontogenetic stages are represented. The new material of Shergoldia laevigata sp. nov. is the first record of completely articulated exoskeletons belonging to the genus.
