are thousands and thousands of fossil sites across the earth
and spanning geologic time. Here we offer information for
but a tiny fraction of them, which are some of the most important,
as well as those for which fossil images have been obtainable.
Far less abundant are the so called Lagerstätten, rare
places where very fine details and sometimes even soft tissue
body parts across a diverse biota are preserved in the fossil
record. Click the links in the right-most column of the
the table below for additional information about different
fossil sites including site descriptions and/or galleries
of fossils from the localities. Geological time period links
within the table go to paleobiological information about
the time period.
