Abstract:
• The Chengjiang euarthropod Ercaicunia multinodosa preserves appendages in 3D
- Head appendages include antennulae, differentiated antennae, mandibles, and maxillae
- Trunk appendages are biramous with proximal epipodites
- Ercaicunia represents the first stem-group pancrustacean known from macrofossils
