Abstract:

Close similarity in trace fossils, facies, and lithologic sequence of the Upper Cambrian and lower Ordovician in eastern Newfoundland, Wales, and northern Spain indicates that these areas were originally in closer proximity. However, the particular kinds of trilobite burrows (Cruziana) that are present in Newfoundland, as well as in many parts of the Old World, are unknown in rocks of equivalent age and facies in mainland North America.
