Human Coprolites as a Source for Paleomicrobiology
Microbiology Spectrum, 2016 The paleomicrobiology of coprolites, which are fossilized fecal materials, has already yielded data about various organisms, including micro-eukaryotes, bacteria, and archaea, thus expanding our comprehension of ancient human dietary habits, gut microbiota, and intestinal and systemic infections.

Beetle-bearing coprolites possibly reveal the diet of a Late Triassic dinosauriform [PDF]
Royal Society Open Science, 2019 Diets of extinct animals can be difficult to analyse if no direct evidence, such as gut contents, is preserved in association with body fossils. Inclusions from coprolites (fossil faeces), however, may also reflect the diet of the host animal and become ...

PALEOPARASITOLOGY: A MODERN-DAY RETHINKING OF HG WELLS TIME MACHINE [PDF]
Exploratory Animal and Medical ResearchThis compilation deals with recent records of paleoparasitology both in Old World and New World. Paleoparasitology study has been started very recently in 1910 when M.A. Ruffer described Schistosoma japonicum eggs in Egyptian mummies (dated 1250-1000 BCE)

Tapeworm eggs in a 270 million-year-old shark coprolite. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Remains of parasites in vertebrates are rare from the Mesozoic and Paleozoic. Once most parasites that live in - or pass through - the gastrointestinal tract of vertebrates, fossil feces (coprolites) or even intestinal contents (enterolites) can ...

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract Differences in skull and tooth morphology, stomach contents, and estimated bite force between medium‐to‐large sized (≥100 kg) predatory theropod dinosaurs have long been suspected to correlate with differences in their diets and dietary guilds (e.g., hypercarnivory, piscivory).
