Taxonomic remark From Sergeev et al., 2012: Leptoteichos was described by Knoll et al. (1978) from the Gunflint Iron Formation as an uncertain planktonic microorganism of prokaryotic origin. These fossils can be remains of chroococcacean cyanobacteria despite other biological interpretations are possible. [details]
