Fossil data from the Cambrian of the Baltic Basin (NERC Grant NE/K005251/1)
Image data and figures of holotypes of small carbonaceous fossils from Cambrian sediments of the Baltic Basin. Also included are sampling information and fossil measurement data.

Data Quality
Samples for microfossil processing were collected from mudstones and siltstones of Cambrian age from a variety of localities in the Baltic region.
