The reason behind the assemblages of fossils is so different because there was a rapid continental drift.

<h3>What is continental drift?</h3>

When there was a motion that took place among the tectonic plates and as a result there was the movement of the continents.  It was a hypothesis in the context of the   Earth's continents.

According to it, it is the  Earth's continents that have been moved over geologic time relative to each other. Because of all this, there was an appearance of the drift across the ocean bed. All this resulted in assemblages of fossils in such a way, that it appears different on different continents.

Thus, the assemblages of fossils were seen so differently because there was a rapid continental drift.
