Two new metazoans from the Cambrian Guanshan biota of China

Two new metazoans from the Cambrian Guanshan biota of China

Sessile epibenthos were diverse and played important part in the process of energy flow in the Cambrian marine ecosystem. Based on new specimens from the Gaoloufang Section of the Wulongqing Formation, we describe two new representatives of the group that show character traits with cnidarians and br...
