... proposed for these trace fossils: Sedilichnus Müller, Oichnus Bromley, Tremichnus Brett and Fossichnus Nielsen, Nielsen and Bromley. Previous authors have established that Tremichnus is a junior synonym of Oichnus . Herein we show that Oichnus and Fossichnus are junior synonyms of Sedilichnus . Sedilichnus...

... and Triloculina sp., were identified only under the SEM and not included in the ecological analyses. Most drill holes resembled Oichnus simplex , Oichnus paraboloides , and Oichnus ovalis , and only three holes resembled Fossichnus solus . In addition, predation was strongly taxon specific; out of 14 species...

... bed yields only rare disarticulated calyx plates of other crinoid species. Pits, Oichnus simplex Bromley, in stems are more likely to be domiciles of unmineralized infesting organisms rather than evidence for gastropod parasitism or predation. Crinoid attachment structures are rare. The associated...
