This quantity provides a pattern of perspectives and visions between a number of the transforming into numbers of Neoproterozoic employees. It incorporates a set of multidisciplinary reports at the Neoproterozoic fossil list, evolutionary developmental biology of animals, and molecular clock estimates of phylogenetic divergences. those issues are of continuous curiosity to geoscientists and bioscientists who're intrigued through the deep heritage of the Earth and its population.

However, the problem of taxonomic inconsistency can be partly alleviated by a complementary and concurrent analysis of morphological disparity, as demonstrated by morphometric studies of Phanerozoic plants and animals (Foote and Gould, 1992; Boyce, 2005). The usefulness of morphometric tools in the analysis of Phanerozoic organisms encouraged us to use such strategies to independently address the question of the evolutionary history of acritarchs. 3 billion years of morphological evolution in the Group Acritarcha.
