Preferred term

fossil record  

Definition

  • The record of life on Earth through time, as recorded in fossils, from the origins of life on Earth through its evolution to the present day. Although the fossil record is incomplete, its quality is equally good throughout phanerozoic time and is adequate to demonstrate the history of life. [Source: Encyclopedia of Environmental Change; fossil record]
