A microfossil assemblage has been detected in phosphorite cherts from the Dengying and Meishucun Formations (610 Ma) of the Sinian System in Jinning County, Yunnan Province, southwest China.A unique type (mode) of microfossil preservation — collophanite or apatite, or even in rare cases, chert-replacement — is reported here for the first time.The size frequency statistics for the assemblage are consistent with the results obtained by Schopf. The assemblage includes 18 genera and 20 species, among which 4 genera and 10 species are new. The assemblage consists of solitary and colonial spheroidal cells and septate or non-septate filaments, mainly Cyanophyta, especially Chroococaceae, Oscillatoriaceae and Nostocaceae.The microfossils described areBigeminococcus grandisn. sp.,Myxococcoides kingii, Myxococcoides grandis, Palaeoanacystis vulgaris, Archaeophycus venustusn.g. et sp.,Eomycetopsis robusta, Circulinema jinningensen.g. et sp.,Circulinema muiraen.g. et sp.,Cyanonema infliatum, Obruchevella parva, Oscillatoriopsis awramikiin. sp.,Palaeolyngbya oehleriin. sp.,Palaeolyngbya spiralisn. sp.,Palaeotubulus lamellosusn.g. et sp.,Veteronostocalesp. 1,Veteronostocalesp. 2,Allantomorphus septatusn.g. et sp.,Clonophycus vacusn. sp.,Archaeotrichion contortum, Rhienonema antiquum, Micrhystridium setulerumandProtosphaeridium densum.
