Abstract

For the first time, complete descriptions and analysis of the morphology of the seven best-preserved imprints of soft tissues of euconodont animals from all known world collections have been carried out. As a result, new morphological features of euconodont animals were established, such as the H attachment element; food bag; transverse muscles; nervous plexus.
