Discovery of Enteromophites in the Chengjiang Biota and Its Ecological Significance (in English)

XU Zhao-Liang   

Abstract:

The paper deals with a new species of megaalgal fossil— Enteromophites intestinalis sp. nov. found in Chengjiang Biota in the early Cambrian. A morphological comparison of the living Enteromorpha and fossil Enteromophites indicates that there probably is a close relationship between these two genera. Based on a study on the surroundings of living Enteromorpha, Enteromophites intestinalis sp. nov. might have lived in the environment of sea or salt water.

摘要:报道了早寒武世澄江生物群中的一种新的化石藻类--肠拟浒苔(Enteromophites intestinalis sp. nov.),丰富了对该时期生物多样性的认识.通过现生浒苔属和化石拟浒苔属藻类形态学的研究表明,这两个属在系统演化上可能有密切的亲缘关系,并阐述了澄江生物群可能发生在一个海水环境.
