Abstract:Biodamages of terrestrial plants caused mainly by terrestrial arthropods, e.g. millipedes, mites, and insects, were studied from siltstones of the middle part of the Belaya Kalitva Formation (late Bashkirian, Carboniferous) of the southern part of Luhansk Region, eastern Ukraine. The traces studied were assigned to 13 damage types (DT) of the numerological systematics developed by Labandeira et al. (2007): external foliage feeding DTs03, 12, 13, 14, 15, 75, 78, 81, 103; piercing-and-sucking DT46; galling DT146… Show more
