Animal
Animals are multicellular, eukaryotic organisms in the biological kingdom Animalia.
Arthropod
Arthropods are invertebrates in the phylum Arthropoda.
Artiopoda
The Artiopoda is a grouping of extinct arthropods that includes trilobites and their close relatives.
Calcification
Calcification is the accumulation of calcium salts in a body tissue.
See Panlongia and Calcification
Cambrian
The Cambrian is the first geological period of the Paleozoic Era, and the Phanerozoic Eon.
Cambrian explosion
The Cambrian explosion (also known as Cambrian radiation or Cambrian diversification) is an interval of time approximately in the Cambrian period of the early Paleozoic when a sudden radiation of complex life occurred, and practically all major animal phyla started appearing in the fossil record.
See Panlongia and Cambrian explosion
Cambrian Stage 4
Cambrian Stage 4 is the still unnamed fourth stage of the Cambrian and the upper stage of Cambrian Series 2.
See Panlongia and Cambrian Stage 4
Cephalon (arthropod head)
The cephalon is the head section of an arthropod.
See Panlongia and Cephalon (arthropod head)
Coeloscleritophoran
The Coelosclerithophorans are a polyphyletic group of organisms bearing hollow sclerites made of aragonite, and with a supposedly distinctive microstructure.
See Panlongia and Coeloscleritophoran
Dinocaridida
DinocarididaGreek for deinos "terrible" and Latin for caris "crab" – sometimes informally spelt Dinocarida, but the second 'id' is linguistically correct – see is a proposed fossil taxon of basal arthropods, which flourished during the Cambrian period and survived up to Early Devonian.
See Panlongia and Dinocaridida
Eocrinoidea
The Eocrinoidea are an extinct class of echinoderms that lived between the Early Cambrian and Late Silurian periods.
Exoskeleton
An exoskeleton (from Greek έξω éxō "outer" and σκελετός skeletós "skeleton") is a skeleton that is on the exterior of an animal in the form of hardened integument, which both supports the body's shape and protects the internal organs, in contrast to an internal endoskeleton (e.g.
Helmetia
Helmetia is an extinct genus of arthropod from the middle Cambrian. Panlongia and Helmetia are Cambrian arthropods.
Houcaris
Houcaris is a possibly paraphyletic radiodont genus, tentatively assigned to either Amplectobeluidae, Anomalocarididae or Tamisiocarididae, known from Cambrian Series 2 of China and the United States.
Hyolitha
Hyoliths are animals with small conical shells, known from fossils from the Palaeozoic era.
Incertae sedis
of uncertain placement or problematica is a term used for a taxonomic group where its broader relationships are unknown or undefined.
See Panlongia and Incertae sedis
Isoxys
Isoxys (meaning "equal surfaces") is a genus of extinct bivalved Cambrian arthropod; the various species of which are thought to have been freely swimming predators. Panlongia and Isoxys are Cambrian arthropods and Maotianshan shales fossils.
Leanchoilia
Leanchoilia is a megacheiran arthropod known from Cambrian deposits of the Burgess Shale in Canada and the Chengjiang biota of China. Panlongia and Leanchoilia are Maotianshan shales fossils.
Lingulata
Lingulata is a class of brachiopods, among the oldest of all brachiopods having existed since the Cambrian period.
Malacostraca
Malacostraca (from Neo-Latin) is the second largest of the six classes of pancrustaceans just behind hexapods, containing about 40,000 living species, divided among 16 orders.
See Panlongia and Malacostraca
Maotianshan Shales
The Maotianshan Shales are a series of Early Cambrian sedimentary deposits in the Chiungchussu Formation, famous for their Konservat Lagerstätten, deposits known for the exceptional preservation of fossilized organisms or traces. Panlongia and Maotianshan Shales are Maotianshan shales fossils.
See Panlongia and Maotianshan Shales
Nektaspida
Nektaspida (also called Naraoiida, Nektaspia and Nectaspida) is an extinct order of non-mineralised artiopodan arthropods. Panlongia and Nektaspida are Cambrian arthropods.
Ocean
The ocean is the body of salt water that covers approx.
Oval
An oval is a closed curve in a plane which resembles the outline of an egg.
Palaeolenus
Palaeolenus is an extinct genus of ptychopariid trilobites of the family Palaeolenidae.
Phytophilaspis
Phytophilaspis is a phosphatized genus of trilobite-like arthropod with eyes, found in association with algal remains.
See Panlongia and Phytophilaspis
Redlichia
Redlichia is a genus of redlichiid trilobite in the family Redlichiidae, with large to very large species (up to long).
Somite
The somites (outdated term: primitive segments) are a set of bilaterally paired blocks of paraxial mesoderm that form in the embryonic stage of somitogenesis, along the head-to-tail axis in segmented animals.
Thorax
The thorax (thoraces or thoraxes) or chest is a part of the anatomy of mammals and other tetrapod animals located between the neck and the abdomen.
Trilobite
Trilobites (meaning "three lobes") are extinct marine arthropods that form the class Trilobita.
Vetulicolia
VetulicoliaThe taxon name, Vetulocolia, is derived from the type genus, Vetulicola, which is a compound Latin word composed of vetuli "old" and cola "inhabitant".
