Primocandelabrum

Primocandelabrum is a genus of rangeomorph known from the Avalon-type Ediacaran biota. It makes up the brunt of some bedding plane assemblages. Primocandelabrum was described by Hofmann, O'Brien, and King in 2008. Three more species were later found in 2017 within the upper layers of the Bradgate Formation of the Charnwood Forest.

The fossils are thus named since it resembles candelabra, giving it its signature genus name.
