Note: Remains, impressions, or traces of humans, animals, or plants of past geological ages that have been preserved in the earth's crust. The complex of data recorded in fossils worldwide--known as the fossil record--is the primary source of information about the history of life on Earth. Only a small fraction of ancient organisms are preserved as fossils, and usually only organisms that have a solid and resistant skeleton are readily preserved.

Additional Notes: |
|
| Chinese (traditional) ..... 過去地質年代的人類、動物或植物被保存在地殼中的遺體、壓印或遺跡。記錄於全球化石的綜合資料（即化石紀錄）是有關在地球上生命歷程的首要資訊來源。僅有一小部份的遠古生物成為化石被保存下來，且通常只有具堅固、能抵抗外力之骨骼的生物容易被保存。 |
| Dutch ..... Overblijfselen, afdrukken of sporen van dieren of planten uit vroegere geologische tijden, die zijn bewaard gebleven in de aardkorst. |
