Trilobozoa (meaning "three-lobed animals") is a phylum of extinct, sessile animals that were originally classified into the Cnidaria. The basic body plan of trilobozoans is often a triradial or radial sphere-shaped form with lobes radiating from its centre.[1] Fossils of trilobozoans are restricted to marine strata of the Late Ediacaran period.
