Thus, the late middle to early late Miocene age based upon radiometric dating and the enclosed
microfossils is well within the temporal and geographic range of the genus.
Informal revised classification of Proterozoic

Early Palaeozoic
microfossils of the genera Coelocerodontus Ethington, 1959 and Viirodus Dubinina, 2000, treated hitherto as conodonts, in fact strongly differ from both euconodonts and paraconodonts.
We can't assume they were actually eating the plants based on finding

In 2011, Brasier, Wacey and colleagues reported finding stronger evidence for

Also the following
microfossils were recognized in Gadvan Formation:
In this water-deposited mineral were organic chemicals, apparent
microfossils, and magnetite grains.
Northumbria University academic Ulrich Salzmann is using pollen and plant
microfossils from sediment cores and rocks to construct a picture of vegetation in the late Pliocene period.
