Abstract

Detailed scientific enquiry and description of remains of the Neoproterozoic microworld of Siberia with biologic interpretation and systematic identification are very actual, they are important for development of evolutional biology. In the Byukskaya suite of the Vendian (Ediacaran) of the Southern Siberian platform, well preserved microfossils are found in silicified columnar stromatolite for the first time. They are interpreted as microscopic fronds of lower nonseptate aquatic fungi, incrusted with calcium-siliceous and calcium-phosphate material. The fronds are composed of abundant very thin thread-like hyphae, densely interlaced with each other. They occur in algal (Chlorophyta) medium.
