The ichnotaxonomy of vertically oriented, bivalve-generated equilibrichnia

Journal of Paleontology, 2013
Bivalves have pursued an infaunal lifestyle since early in their history. Trace fossils that have been attributed to the infaunal activity of bivalves includeHillichnus, Lockeia(=Pelecypodichnus),Lophoctenium, Protovirgularia, Ptychoplasma,SiphonichnusandScalichnus.

Concerning the Erection of Ichnogenera and Ichnospecies in Vertebrate Ichnotaxonomy

Ichnos, 2002
In accord with currently accepted principles of ichnological nomenclature, ichnotaxa must be named based on morphology. An ichnotaxobase is a set of characters of a footprint or trackway that must satisfy some conditions such as coherence clarity. Quantitative measurements must be utilized in descriptive statistical studies and potentiality of typical ...

Ichnotaxonomy of microbial trace fossils in volcanic glass

Journal of the Geological Society, 2009
Abstract: Ancient microbial activity in volcanic glass creates micron-sized cavities that can be regarded as trace fossils. These are common in glassy rims of oceanic pillow lavas and volcanic breccias. Morphologically comparable mineralized traces are also found in (meta)-volcanic glasses from ophiolites and Precambrian ...

Ichnotaxonomy: A Burrow by Any Other Name…?

Short Courses in Paleontology, 1992
Ichnotaxonomy is a formal, hierarchical classification system for trace fossils (=ichnofossils, the fossilized results of behavior). It includes a binomial nomenclature similar to the zoological taxonomic hierarchy applied to organisms. A common observation from non-ichnologists is that a formal system of classification and nomenclature for footprints,

Damaged armour: Ichnotaxonomy and paleoparasitology of bioerosion lesions in osteoderms of Quaternary extinct armadillos

Journal of South American Earth Sciences, 2021
Abstract Osteoderms are dermal ossifications present in several vertebrates and assemble a carapace on armadillos. Here we describe ichnotaxonomically two types of bioerosion traces as well as paleopathologically ulcerative lesions on osteoderms of three specimens of Late Pleistocene Holmesina cryptae armadillos (Xenarthra, Cingulata, Pampatheriidae)

Ichnotaxonomie und Klassifikation

1999
Viele sehr alte und inzwischen fest eingeburgerte Namen von Spurenfossilien beruhen auf Fehldeutungen und Fehlbestimmungen. Mancher fruhere Bearbeiter sah in Spurenfossilien von Invertebraten die Reste von Algen, Schwammen oder anderen Organismen und klassifizierte sie entweder als botanische oder als zoologische Korperfossiltaxa.

Fossil ground sloth footprints: ichnotaxonomy and producers

Papers in Palaeontology
Abstract This paper includes a comprehensive study on the ichnotaxonomy and potential producers of fossil ground sloth footprints from South and North America. We propose the new ichnofamily Megatherichnidae to include quadrupedal trackways characterized by elliptical or falciform footprints, often containing claw
