#Fractofusus is the most common organism at many of the #Ediacaran fossil sites in #Newfoundland, and it's also one of the best preserved. Here we can see the complex branching they possessed, preserved in exquisite detail.

This #FossilFriday we have wrapped up a wonderful field season in Newfoundland on #Ediacaran life - here are some tiny #Fractofusus for #FractofususFriday from Mistaken Point

I've not posted for #FossilFriday for a few weeks, so let's get back to it with #FractofususFriday! This #Ediacaran beastie from Mistaken Point, #Newfoundland, possessed some very complex branching, as highlighted in this close-up image (courtesy of CBC.ca).

This #FossilFriday, let’s also celebrate #FractofususFriday! Here’s a cast of several #Fractofusus specimens growing around (and likely absorbing nutrients from) a large mass of decaying tissue on the #Ediacaran sea floor. From Mistaken Point, #Newfoundland.

When the sunlight is at just the right angle the #Ediacaran fossils at Mistaken Point, #Newfoundland, almost seem to jump off of the surface. It’s a truly magnificent sight (and site!) to behold.
