A Critical Review of Eolian Ichnofacies
Two ichnofacies have been named to encompass inland eolian depositional systems, the Octopodichnus and the Entradichnus ichnofacies, and are often combined into a single, Octopodichnus–Entradichnus ichnofacies.

The Late Miocene Rifian corridor as a natural laboratory to explore a case of ichnofacies distribution in ancient gateways [PDF]
Oceanic gateways have modulated ocean circulation and have influenced climatic variations throughout the Earth´s history. During the late Miocene (7.8–7.35 Ma), the Atlantic Ocean and the Mediterranean Sea were connected through the Rifian Corridor ...

The ichnofacies and ichnoassemblages in terrestrial deposits of China
Over the last 30 years, terrestrial ichnofossil research was mostly focused on three ichnofacies: the Scoyenia ichnofacies, characterizing transitional fluvio-lacustrine environments, the Mermia ichnofacies, characterizing fully lacustrine settings, and ...

Animal–substrate interactions preserved in ancient lagoonal chalk [PDF]
Trace-fossil assemblages reflect the response of the benthos to sets of paleoenvironmental conditions during and immediately after sedimentation. Trace fossils have been widely studied in pelagic shelf and deep-sea chalk deposits from around the globe ...

A new insect trackway from the Upper Jurassic—Lower Cretaceous eolian sandstones of São Paulo State, Brazil: implications for reconstructing desert paleoecology [PDF]
The new ichnospecies Paleohelcura araraquarensis isp. nov. is described from the Upper Jurassic-Lower Cretaceous Botucatu Formation of Brazil. This formation records a gigantic eolian sand sea (erg), formed under an arid climate in the south-central part

Tetrapod tracks in Permo–Triassic eolian beds of southern Brazil (Paraná Basin) [PDF]
Tetrapod tracks in eolianites are widespread in the fossil record since the late Paleozoic. Among these ichnofaunas, the ichnogenus Chelichnus is the most representative of the Permian tetrapod ichnological record of eolian deposits of Europe, North ...

THE LATE CRETACEOUS VERTEBRATE ICHNOFACIES OF BOLIVIA - FACTS AND IMPLICATIONS
Cretaceous dinosaur tracks are known in Central Bolivia since 1968. Recent work shows that tracksites are widespread and occur in multiple layers from the Campanian to the Late Maastrichtian.
