In addition to the species, due to the closure of a not in harmony with the environment, which displays five fossil evidence of mass extinction (and many smaller).
The scientists, the extinction of the large mass such as a turning point in the development, when times were good and poorly adjusted and dust. The first was of four hundred fifty million years, in which more than 80% of marine species (no mass again) came to a halt, and the fifth was Yucatan asteroid 65 million years ago the dinosaurs convicted.
