Comments on the Cambrian biogeography of Spain

The Cambrian faunas recorded in the different areas of the Hesperian Massif do not support evidences of a marked biogeographical differentiation in the Iberian Peninsula throughout this Period.

Resumo:The Cambrian faunas recorded in the different areas of the Hesperian Massif do not support evidences of a marked biogeographical differentiation in the Iberian Peninsula throughout this Period. The vertical variations shown by the trilobite and archaeocyathid associations are related to more global factors as are a certain climatic uniformity, the proximity of the Gondwanan continent and the opening of a Mideuropean Ocean.
