Sien ook die sjablone: Sjabloon:Fossiel tydperk-65 en Sjabloon:Fossiel tydperk-252 wat 'n tydskaal van <65 mj (net Kainosoïkum) en <252 mj (Mesosoïkum en Kainosoïkum) weergee. Gebruik gerus hierdie sjablone vir fossiele wat effens jonger is.

Usage

{{fossil range|first appearance (required)|last appearance|text to display|earliest=earliest putative fossil|latest=latest putative fossil|ref=References|PS=anything to display after the range}}

Italic parameters are optional, bold required.

Illustrates the fossil range of a taxon. Intended for use in {{taxobox}}es.

You can give a numeric range, or specify the periods involved. The range will be quoted in text before the timeline, unless you specify a third parameter - leaving it blank will result in no text being provided.

To illustrate the range when it spans before the Ediacaran (i.e. deep into the precambrian), you should use Template:Long fossil range, which works in exactly the same way as documented here.

You can also specify "earliest" and "latest" to add a "ghost" bar beyond the accepted fossil range. You can use these parameters for whatever you like; they may be useful in the case of living fossils such as the coelocanth, where you may wish to specify latest=0 to make the bar faintly extend to the present; they bay also be useful where "earliest" fossils are not universally accepted - for instance, the octocorals only have a good fossil record from the Tertiary, but there are claims of Cambrian representatives. In this case, you may wish to specify earliest=middle Cambrian.

If you receive an error when specifying a period name, check you've spelt it right; if so, it probably isn't yet incorporated into the templates {{next period}} and {{period start}}. This is really easy to do, so feel free to add the period yourself to make future editors' lives easier!
