Spanish translation:Biota del periodo Ediacárico / Vendiense
Explanation:
Según Wikipedia:

http://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biota_del_periodo_Ediacárico

Por cierto, el término "Vendian" es obsoleto, ahora se llama "Ediacaran", pero si realmente quieres mantenerlo puedes utilizar el término "Vendiense".

agree  M. C. Filgueira: Yo mantendría el término "biota", como en el original. No es necesario explicar qué significa. Por otra parte, nada justifica la mayúscula inicial de "período". Saludos cordiales.
