Abstract
Sediments containing two almost entirely different Upper
Middle Cambrian faunas are in direct contact near
Christmas Hills, Tasmania. Two reasons are advanced
in explanation for this faunal change, (a) that there is
a disconformity at the position of the faunal change, or
(b) that the younger fauna replaced the older fauna due
to a change in environment.
