One of the primary puzzles is the earliest appearance of drilling predation. There are small round holes in Cloudina skeletons of the Late Precambrian (Bengston and Zhao, 1992), and similar small holes in Cambrian brachiopod shells (Conway Morris and Bengston, 1994) which may be predatory, but the earliest post-Cambrian predation drillholes are thus far in the Devonian (see Leighton, 2001, and references therein)....
