摘要
Sponge spicule fossils are abundant and diverse from carbonatite strata in Xihaoping Member and the lower Shuijingtuo Formation of Lower Cambrian at Zhenba County of southern Shaanxi Province. Based on morphology method, the sponge spicule fossils were described in detail, and the habitat and location of stratum were shown. The results showed that the sponge spicule fossils were in Qiongzhusian age according to the biostratigraphy data including small shelly fossil and trilobite which were symbiotic with the sponge spicule fossils; there were tetractines, hexactines and triaxon pentactines which were regular, and there were tetraron tetractines, pentaxon pentactines, oxaster and dichostauractines which were irregular; the tetraron tetractines, pentaxon pentactines, oxaster pentaxon and dichobixactines were the new types.
