21.01.2022 Spriggina was a complex, very familiar-looking Ediacaran fossil. It was the first animal fossil discovered with a head! Spriggina lived on the Ediacaran seafloor about 550 million years ago, and may have been an ancestor of arthropods (e.g. animals like crabs, lobsters and insects).

02.01.2022 Eoandromeda may have just been the most intriguing Ediacaran fossil, dated at around half a billion years ago. It had eight 'arms' that spiralled outwards from a central boss. Because of its unique shape, it was named after a spiralling galaxy - the Andromeda nebula.

01.01.2022 Tribrachidium was a small and round, possibly suspension-feeding organism that sat on the Ediacaran seafloor around 550 million years ago. It had three 'arms' that spiralled outwards which may have been used to slow water currents above it.
