The taxonomic treatment of trace fossils needs a uniform approach, independent the ethologic groups concerned. To this aim, are rigorously defined with regard to biological taxa and physical sedimentary structures. Potential ichnotaxobases evaluated, morphology resulting as most important criterion. For related bioerosion herbivory, substrate plays key role, well composition for coprolites. Size, producer, age, facies preservation rejected ichnotaxobases. Separate names undertracks other...
Bone is a substrate for bioerosion at equal rank with xylic and lithic substrates. Accordingly, borings in bone have to be identified an analogous way other ichnogenera coined one type of substrate. In due course, the new Osteichnus n. igen. Clavichnus are established within ichnofamily Osteichnidae. Gastrochaenolites Trypanites here restricted substrates, Asthenopodichnium only occurs Only this approach, ichnotaxobases trace fossils identical those hard Cuniculichnus variabilis isp....
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...
Wood boring represents a common feeding and survival strategy in several lineages of beetles. The larvae wood-boring beetles hatch excavate tunnels wood during their development. origin evolutionary history this life habit, however, remain poorly understood to date, as the fossil record is scarce. We present new silicified conifer specimens containing complex borings from lowermost Permian Manebach Formation Thuringian Forest Basin central Germany lower Donnersberg Saar–Nahe southwestern...
Abstract Macroboring of coral reefs has varied significantly through time, with the modern intensity and producer composition (usually dominated by sponges) as a rather recent phenomenon. Given outstanding role influence bioerosion on framework morphology, community sediment production, Modern conditions are therefore poor analogues for structure function pre-Neogene reef systems. Neogene borer associations mostly sponges, although marked spatial variations in abundance groups evident within...
An insect boring of unique shape is described from a lignitic layer within the Early Cretaceous (Berriasian) Skyttegård Member Rabekke Formation on Bornholm. Morphologically it cannot be compared to any modern or fossil wood borings, although some structures are reminiscent Scolytidae, Platypodidae and Lymexylonidae. Most probably, however, tracemaker was female fungus-farming beetle, thus producing an agrichnion.
Coral reefs of the Late Jurassic (Oxfordian) in northern Germany and France have a style bioerosion that is closer to Triassic than modem ones. Boring sponges played minor roles here but gradually became more important southerly regions during Tithonian. This likely be linked falling sea-level whose increased nutrient input triggered microbial growth shallow water. With feeding on microbes, was time change borer associations reefs.

Tetraphyllum Griff. ex C.B.Clarke (Gesneriaceae) has erroneously been replaced by Tetraphylloides Doweld, as he considered Hosius & von der Marck an angiosperm and thus its earlier homonym. Reinvestigation of the holotype type species dubium Marck, however, shows this to be a trace fossil. The latter is re-validated ichnotaxon herein. Since botanical zoological names do not compete for homonymy or synonymy, Doweld younger synonym C.B.Clarke. In due course, Tetraphylloidinae...

Contrary to common perception, the International Code of Zoological Nomenclature does not contain provisions that turn (ichno)specific names into nomina dubia if their holotype is lost or destroyed. Such are only original diagnosis and/or description insufficient recognise taxon. For this reason, there no need introduce a category “axiotype” be recognized in as possible name-bearing type, proposed recently. The designation neotypes tied formalized process can ultima ratio under certain...
