Abstract

Abstract

There are a large number of acritarchs with spines and fine reticular patterns, well exposed in the shale of Baicaoping Formation of Ruyang Group in western Henan, such as Shuiyousphaeridium macroreticulatum and Dictyosphaera macroreticulata which are the most representative fossil specimens. In this paper, the microscopic structure of the membrane shell was observed by scanning electron microscope combined with optical biological microscope. Moreover, the two representative fossil specimens (Shuiyousphaeridium macroreticulatum and Dictyosphaera macroreticulata) may be produced at different stages of the same organism. These features not only reveal more information about the original characteristics of the microbe, but also enrich the morphological classification of the microfossils in Ruyang Group. In addition, based on the analyses of biomarker from shale with microfossils, it shows that pristane/phytane ratio (Pr/Ph) is greater than 1, the abundance of gammacerane is medium and there is biomarker (C₃₀ hopane, C₂₇ sterane and tricyclic terpane), which not only indicates that the paleoenvironment of microfossils in Ruyang Group should be normal marine environment-coastal-shallow sea facies, but also indicates the existence of Proterozoic eukaryotes, which provides an important theoretical basis for the reconstruction of microfauna and the discussion of the evolution of early life.
