Stratigraphic and sedimentological aspects of ichnofabric analysis
Известия высших учебных заведений: Геология и разведка, 2015 Trace fossils are one of the paleontological groups that could be used for solving complex geological problems. Trace fossils represent the sedimentological structures, produced by living organisms in the mass of sediment.

The swimming trace Undichna from the latest Devonian Hangenberg Sandstone equivalent of Morocco
Swiss Journal of Palaeontology, 2021 Trace fossils occur in several strata of the Devonian and Carboniferous of the eastern Anti-Atlas, but they are still poorly documented. Here, we describe a fossil swimming trace from strata overlying the Hangenberg Black Shale (correlation largely based

Virtual fossils: a new resource for science communication in paleontology [PDF]
, 2012 Computer-aided 3-D reconstruction of fossils, or virtual paleontology, is an increasingly common and powerful technique. It is now regularly used for research in paleontology, yet to date has impacted little on public outreach and science communication ...

Trilobite expansion into estuarine environments during the Ordovician radiation [PDF]
Estonian Journal of Earth Sciences, 2023 Trilobites have traditionally been considered fully marine. Through the integration of ichnological, palaeobiological and sedimentological datasets within a sequence-stratigraphic and stratiÂgraphic palaeobiology framework, we challenge this assumption.

Precambrian Biota: Protistan Origin of Trace Fossils? [PDF]
, 2009 Some Precambrian trace fossils have been presented as evidence for the early origin of bilaterians; the recent finding that large amoeboid protists leave macroscopic traces at the bottom of the deep ocean questions the metazoan nature of early trace ...

Not armour, but biomechanics, ecological opportunity and increased fecundity as keys to the origin and expansion of the mineralized benthic metazoan fauna [PDF]
, 2005 This paper offers a new biotic interaction hypothesis for the Cambrian 'explosion' of mineralized, benthic, metazoan diversity. It proposes that organic-mineral composite structures (e.g.

Nature Communications, 2021 KNM-ER 2598 is one of the oldest known Homo erectus fossils but there are doubts about its age. Here, Hammond et al. trace the original location of the specimen, confirming an age >1.85 million years, and locating additional hominin fossils situated in a
