| On the cover: On the cover: Vivid life is everywhere in this blue planet. In this cover, four seasons are illustrated with diverse lives that are the traces of entire ecosystem circle. What a natural harmony! From birth to death, each species has its own life cycle and innate mechanisms decoded and to be decoded by scientists. The destiny of life cycle can be revealed by genome within a cell as the core of living beings. The more scientific discoveries about the core, the higher possibilities to disclose the truth of life. For sustainable development of our planet, it is important to build up one co-existing ecosystem for all living things. |

Graphical abstract Cnidarians diverged very early in animal evolution; therefore, investigations of the morphology and trophic levels of early fossil cnidarians may provide critical insights into the evolution of metazoans and the origin of modern marine food webs. However, there has been a lack of unambiguous anthozoan cnidarians from Ediacaran assemblages, and undoubted anthozoans from the Cambrian radiation of metazoans are very rare and lacking in ecological evidence. Here, we report a new polypoid cnidarian, Nailiana elegans gen.
