  Dickinsonia - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Dickinsonia is known from Ediacaran beds in both the Alice Springs and Ediacara regions of Australia, as well as Rajastan, Podolia, and the White Sea region of Russia.
Dickinsonia is generally regarded as a member of the Vendazoa — a group of somewhat obscure organisms that thrived just before most of the modern multicellular animal phyla appeared.
Other vendazoa such as Yorgia and Marywadea somewhat resemble Dickinsonia and may be related.

The Vendian biota (also known as Vendian forms, Vendian fauna(s), and Vendazoa) are a group of ancient lifeforms that are found in rocks a bit older than the Cambrian faunas that represent the oldest fossils of classical paleontology.
It has been proposed that they consitute an ancient phylum, the vendazoa, that largely died out just before the beginning of the Cambrian.
Other than a few dubious fossils from the Upper Cambrian in Ireland, there is no known overlap between the Vendazoa and modern lifeforms.

 Dickinsonia
Dickinsonia is known from neoproterozoic beds in both the Alice Springs and Ediacara[?] regions of Australia, as well as Rajastan, Podolia, and the White Sea region of Russia.
Dickinsonia is generally regarded as a member of the Vendazoa[?] -- a group of somewhat obscure animals that thrived just before most of the modern multicellular animal phyla[?] appeared.
It is unclear if the Vendazoa[?] are plants, animals, or something else entirely.

 Pteridinium
It was originally thought that pternidium might be a primitive cnidarian, but it appears that it is, at best, only very distantly related to any known cnidarian.
It's relation to other known Vendazoa is no clearer.
There are no identified related forms although there is some vague resemblance to other vendian forms such as Dickinsonia that share some of its enigmatic characteristics.

 Dickinsonia - EvoWiki   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
The organism appears to lack a digestive tract, and its fossils have no discernable trace of any internal organs, either.
This creature is among the most famous and most recognizable of the Vendazoa, and currently defies classification.
When it was first discovered, its (possibly superficial) segmentation suggested that it may have been an annelid worm.

 Vendazoa - EvoWiki   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
The Vendazoa, also known as the Vendozoa, Vendia Biota, or the Ediacara Fauna, collectively refer to the organisms of the Late Precambrian, before the Cambrian Explosion.
Many of the fossil species are extremely difficult to interpret, with some experts questioning if they were diploblastic animals, or if they constitute an extinct kingdom of eukaryotes.
