ABSTRACT In the Upper Permian to Lower Triassic Khuff Formation in Arabian Gulf, a vast shallow-marine carbonate platform developed broad facies belts with little significant changes lithofacies. However, trace fossil assemblages and ichnofabrics, combination sedimentological observations, serve subdividing this distinguishing sub-environments. From proximal distal, these are sabkha salina, tidal flat, restricted lagoon, open margin, shoreface/inner ramp, slope/outer ramp basin/deeper...

Terra Nova, 22, 195–202, 2010 A semi-quantitative analysis of the endobenthic activity across Permo-Triassic boundary (PTB) was carried out on a ∼445-m-thick well core interval from Persian Gulf by logging degree bioturbation, trace fossil distribution and ichnodiversity (ID). This enables for first time evaluation recovery organisms after end-Permian mass extinction direct comparison post-extinction (Lower Triassic) with pre-extinction (Upper Permian) units. The results indicate that...

By establishing the bioerosion ichnogenus Oichnus , Richard Bromley (1981) addressed 'small round holes in shells' and catalysed a series of still ongoing discussions on ichnotaxonomical principles. In recent revision by Zonneveld Gingras (2014), was rejected, together with Tremichnus Brett, 1985 Fossichnus Nielsen, Nielsen Bromley, 2003, means subjective synonymisation presumed senior synonym Sedilichnus Müller, 1977. However, is nomenclaturally unavailable, because it an atelonym...

Abstract Fossilized faeces (bromalites) are common in the geological record and have been recognized for centuries, first their peculiarity later sedimentological palaeontological analysis. Coprolites (the ejected faecal material) cololites (faecal material preserved gut) may be morphologically compositionally similar dealt with parataxonomic classification as trace fossils. While much effort has put into study of coprolites produced by vertebrates, invertebrate remain poorly understood...

Abstract Ichnological studies are still in their infancy when it comes to the interpretation of deep‐marine deposits. The Eocene–Oligocene turbidite system Grès d'Annot Formation south‐east F rance is well‐studied sedimentologically, but its trace‐fossil content poorly known. Here, an integrated ichnological–sedimentological study presented from Annot sub‐basin for first time, which demonstrates value interpreting proximal distal and axial marginal trends confined systems. A comprehensive...

Abstract The classical Middle to Upper Triassic carbonate sections at Monte Santa Giusta and Punta del Lavatoio, North‐west Sardinia (Italy), referred the Muschelkalk Keuper lithofacies group, are revisited their trace fossil content is investigated for first time. A combined ichnological sedimentological study reveals insights into depositional environments, regional context, palaeogeography sequence stratigraphy. results indicate deposition on a homoclinal ramp with broad facies belts.
