Graptolithina

The Graptolithina root display uses 516–0 Ma as a sampled envelope from diagnostic Yunotubus material in the approximately 516 Ma Hongjingshao Formation to living rhabdopleurid graptolites; it is not a graptolite origin date. This navigation entry is not a phylogeny or a complete taxon dossier.
