Palaeogeography, Palaeoclimatology, Palaeoecology, 1988
Abstract As secondary inhabitants of gastropod shells, hermit crabs (Anomura: Paguridea) can influence the preservation potential and resulting fossil record of gastropod shells and can modify the paleoecological information left on the shells. The fossil record of hermit crabs is almost non-existent (occasional chelipeds) and does not illuminate the
