== Original instructions copied from en:wiki ==
Illustrates the fossil range of a taxon. Intended for use in {{tn|taxobox}}es.
 
You can give a numeric range, or specify the periods involved. The range will be quoted in text before the timeline, unless you specify a third parameter - leaving it blank will result in no text being provided.
 
To illustrate the range when it spans before the [[Ediacaran]] (i.e. deep into the precambrian), you should use [[Template:Long fossil range]], which works in exactly the same way as documented here.
 
You can also specify "earliest" and "latest" to add a "ghost" bar beyond the accepted fossil range. You can use these parameters for whatever you like; they may be useful in the case of living fossils such as the [[coelocanth]], where you may wish to specify <code>latest=0</code> to make the bar faintly extend to the present; they may also be useful where "earliest" fossils are not universally accepted - for instance, the [[octocorals]] only have a good fossil record from the Tertiary, but there are claims of Cambrian representatives. In this case, you may wish to specify <code>earliest=middle Cambrian</code>.
