Abstract
Abstract. Sidneyia inexpectans was first excavated in Laurentia, and since then Sidneyia and Sidneyia-like euarthropods have been reported from different continents. Here we describe a new Sidneyia-like euarthropod from the Guanshan biota and, its preserved dorsal exoskeleton and appendages resemble those of S. inexpectans. The discovery in the Guanshan biota provides a new data point of Sidneyia-like euarthropod in Cambrian Stage 4 and a second occurrence on the South China plate.
期刊介绍:
Paleonotological Research (PR) is a quarterly, peer-reviewed international journal, which focuses on original contributions primarily in the area of paleontology but also covering a wide range of allied sciences. It has been published since 1997 as a successor to the former journal Transactions and Proceedings of the Palaeontological Society of Japan. The emphasis of contributions will include global and local perspectives, and contents can cover all ages (Precambrian to the Quaternary, including the present time).
