		Biota are a musical collective from Fort Collins, CO who focus on the electronic manipulation of acoustic sounds, mainly instruments such as naes, hurdy-gurdies, keyboards, percussion and, most recently, vocals.
		They started out as the musical wing of the Mnemonists, a group of musicians, scientists and visual artists whose self-proclaimed goal was to question the desirability of bombarding children with technology; the musical wing split off in the mid-80s and renamed itself Biota, though the painters still provide their colorful liner notes and cover art.
		Their early work (which I haven't heard at the time of this writing) is reputed to be very abstract, noisy and difficult to hear as coming from acoustic sources.

	A THALLOPHYTIC-ALGA-DOMINATED BIOTA FROM THE SILURIAN ERAMOSA FORMATION, ONTARIO, CANADA (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
		A "thallophytic-alga-dominated biota" is a distinctive and recurrent fossil assemblage in which noncalcified thallophytic algae ("seaweeds") and worms (primarily annelids) are the principal, and often only, constituents.
		This biota provides a remarkably complete view of a community characteristic of restricted, shallow marine settings since at least the Cambrian and ranks among the most common of Konservat-Lagerstätten, a biased representation that stems from habitat parameters particularly conducive to preservation.
		The biota is preserved within thinly laminated, organic-rich dolostone; worms (polychaetes) are represented as articulated scolecodont assemblages, whereas algae are preserved as carbonized compressions.
