Omnidens, meaning "all-tooth", is an extinct genus of large Cambrian animal known only from a series of large mouth apparatus and sclerotized talon-like structures, originally mistaken as the mouthparts of anomalocaridids. [1] When first named, it was interpreted as a giant priapulid, [1] but is now considered a panarthropod. [2]
However, the name of the gazelle is scarcely, if at all, to be found in the Bible; in its stead we read roe, hart, or deer. Like a few other names of graceful and timid animals, the word gazelle has always been in the East a term of endearment in love.

The chalkydri and phoenixes are described as creatures 900 measures in size with the head of a crocodile and the feet and tail like that of a lion, each having twelve wings, and are empurpled like the color of the rainbow. Both the chalkydri and phoenixes are referred to as "flying elements of the Sun" in the Second Book of Enoch.
The largest known Cambrian radiodont was Amplectobelua, reaching lengths of up to 90 cm (35 in) based on an incomplete specimen. [15] Anomalocaris canadensis was also relatively large, estimated up to 34.2–37.8 cm (13.5–14.9 in) long, [ 2 ] and the Cambrian hurdiid Titanokorys approached around 50 cm (20 in) long.
This animal's body was very long, and had extreme segmentation compared to other Cambrian arthropods, with over 100 distinct segments. In total this creature had about 110 pairs of biramous limbs, the most of any Cambrian-aged arthropod. Covering the head of this creature was a large carapace that resembles an arch or other curved structure ...
This list contains many extinct arthropod genera from the Cambrian Period of the Paleozoic Era. Some trilobites, bradoriids and phosphatocopines may not be included due to the lack of literature on these clades and inaccessibility of many papers describing their genera. This list also provides references for any Wikipedia users who intend to ...
