}} Parvancorina is a genus of shield-shaped bilaterally symmetrical fossil animal that lived in the late Ediacaran seafloor. It has some superficial similarities with the Cambrian trilobite-like arthropods. EtymologyThe generic name is derived from a crasis compound word from the Latin parva ancora (small anchor). The specific name of the type species, P. minchami, honors Mr. H. Mincham, the private collector, who in 1957 had collected and presented a number of fine specimens of Ediacaran fossils to the South Australian Museum. The specific name of P. sagitta is the Latin word sagitta (arrow), in direct reference to the arrow-like shape. OccurrenceP. minchami fossils were first discovered in the Ediacara Member of the Rawnslay Quartzite, Flinders Ranges, in South Australia.[1] This species is also known from deposits of the Verkhovka, Zimnegory and Yorga Formations in the White Sea area of the Arkhangelsk Region, Russia. Additionally, similar poorly preserved Parvancorina sp. fossils were found in Lyamtsa Formation of this Russian region.[2]P. sagitta is found in the Verkhovka formation on the Solza River, White Sea area of the Arkhangelsk Region, Russia.[2]DescriptionIt has a raised ridge down the central axis of symmetry. This ridge can be high in unflattened fossils. At the 'head' end of the ridge there are two quarter-circle-shaped raised arcs attached. In front of this are two nested semicircular lines. Teeth seem to come from the raised parts pointing into the centre spaces.{{Citation needed|date=July 2010}} These may show as raised lines. The fossils are normally about {{convert|1|cm|abbr=off}} in each of width and length, but can be up to {{convert|2|cm|abbr=off}}. AffinityIn attempting to determine its phylogenic relationships, Parvancorina has been compared with trilobite-like arthropods, such as Skania fragilis from the Burgess Shale Biota, Canada, and Primicaris larvaformis from the Chengjiang Biota, China.[3][4] However, the growth form of Parvancorina is unusual for an arthropod,[5] and its apparent sessile mode of life appears to rebut an arthropod affinity.[6] Furthermore, the strong resemblance of P. sagitta to the primitive mollusk-like bilateran Temnoxa[2] and similarities to parts of Kimberella[7] casts further doubt on an arthropod affinity. Lifestyle and habitusThe living Parvancorinas typically lived with their "heads" parallel to the current direction.[8] Overfolding of the fossils from all sides contradicts any form of stalked attachment to the sea floor.[9] See also{{Portal|Paleontology}}
