A newly discovered fossil at Nilpena Ediacara National Park is revealing details about the first animals on Earth!

Researchers from American universities and the South Australian Museum have unearthed more than a dozen specimens of the new fossil at Nilpena Ediacara National Park.

The fossil, known as Quaestio due to its distinctive question mark-shaped ridge, is one of over 100 multicellular organisms from the Ediacaran period. This era, which spanned roughly 635 to 538 million years ago, marked the emergence of the first complex, macroscopic animals on Earth.

The full name of the fossil is Quaestio simpsonorum in recognition of Mary Lou Simpson, who is the founder and chairwoman of the Flinders Ranges Ediacara Foundation, and her husband and fellow philanthropist Antony Simpson.

Measuring up to 8cm wide, the fossils are the preserved imprints of organisms that likely moved along what was once the seafloor but is now part of the Flinders Ranges landscape.

Want to see these ancient wonders up close? Visit Nilpena Ediacara National Park for a guided tour and discover the fossils that are unlocking Earth's ancient mysteries.
