“One of the earliest lines of evidence for sponges comes from well-preserved molecular biomarkers of demosponges from strata of the Neoproterozoic Huqf Supergroup of the South Oman Salt Basin pre-dating the termination of the Marinoan glaciation and having a minimum age of c . 635 Ma”

In the citing paper
“Fifth, the maximum for the origin of crown-group demosponges, is the first appearance of demosponge-specific biomarkers (McCaffrey et al. 1994; Love et al. 2006; see Peterson et al. 2007 for discussion), sometime after the Sturtian, ca 657 Myr ago (Kendall et al. 2006).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
