connorp Posted June 8, 2019 Share Posted June 8, 2019 I acquired this enigmatic creature a while back and just rediscovered it in storage. It was found in the Heilinpu Fm, Kunming, Yunnan Province, China (Lower Cambrian, same age as the Chengjiang fauna). I have seen a few similar creatures offered from the same locality from a few sellers. It has been alternately labeled as either a cnidarian or ctenophoran. However, I've looked through a few dozen papers about cnidarians/ctenaphorans from Chengjiang and have found no similar specimens. Has anyone seen these before?

MarcusFossils Posted June 8, 2019 Share Posted June 8, 2019 I've seen these labeled as ctenophores but I have no clue if they really are.
