Wiwaxia adalah genus hewan bertubuh lunak yang tertutupi sisik karbon dan duri yang melindunginya dari pemangsa. Fosil Wiwaxia – terutama sisik terisolasi, tetapi kadang-kadang fosil lengkap, terartikulasi – diketahui dari deposit Kambrium awal dan Kambrium tengah di seluruh dunia.[4][5][6] Hewan yang hidup memiliki panjang dari 5 cm (2 inci) ketika dewasa, meskipun beberapa spesimen remaja diketahui, yang terkecil berukuran sepanjang 2 milimeter (0.079 inci).[6]
Afinitas Wiwaxia telah menjadi bahan perdebatan: Para peneliti telah lama terbelah antara dua kemungkinan. Di satu sisi, barisan sisik tampak sekilas mirip dengan annelida; sebaliknya, bagian mulutnya dan morfologi umum menunjukkan adanya hubungan dengan moluska tanpa cangkang. Baru-baru ini, bukti afinitas moluska telah terakumulasi, berdasarkan detail baru dari bagian mulut, cangkang, dan sejarah Wiwaxia.[6][7]
Klad Halwaxiida yang diusulkan mengandung Wiwaxia serta beberapa hewan Kambrium serupa.
