Illustrates the fossil range of a taxon, the geological range of a stratigraphic unit, or other ranges on a geological timescale. Intended for use in {{tn|taxobox}}es, {{tl|Infobox rockunit}}s, and other infoboxes. For pre-Phanerozoic ages, see {{tl|Long fossil range}}.
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 geological 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 [[coelacanth]], 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>.

Untuk fosil sebelum periode Ediakaran, gunakan [[Templat:Long fossil range]].
For organisms whose fossil range extends significantly before the Ediacaran, use [[Templat:Long fossil range]].
