Salterellidae

Salterellidae is a family of enigmatic fossil genera from the Early to Middle Cambrian. It was originally created for the genus Salterella by Charles Doolittle Walcott, who placed it in the group Pteropoda.[1] It was later placed in Agmata, a proposed extinct phylum by Ellis L. Yochelson which is accepted by some other authors.[3]

Genera
gollark: Anyway, presumably the remover tool downloaded an omnidisk onto it for some reason but didn't add a UUID or license or something. It should be logged to SPUDNET-IR actually.
gollark: The `not a directory` issue is caused by, probably, it deleting the potatOS user data folder. If that's missing, potatOS will recreate it with a mode-γ update.
gollark: * wrong
gollark: Ah, it must be loading an omnidisk but doing it worng.
gollark: What?
