The most noteworthy feature of Paleozoic life is the sudden appearance of nearly all of the invertebrates animal phyla in great abundance at the beginning of the Cambrian. A few primitive fish like invertebrates, and then vertebrates , appeared in the Cambrian and Ordovician, scorpions in the Silurian period, land invertebrates and amphibians in the Devonian, land reptiles in the Carboniferous, and marine reptiles in the Permian. All reptiles increased in number and in variety by the late Permian. The plant life of the Paleozoic era reached its climax in the Carboniferous, and was then much diminished in the Permian.
