“…The final paradox is that when the last great advances in ichnology ultimately came, in the 1950's and early ~O ' S , most of the uniformitarian 'keys' were derived not from recent environments but from the rock record. Studies of the recent did help establish a meaningful ethological classification of lebensspuren (Simpson 1975); but ancient traces were the mainstay of preservational classifications (Hallam 1975) and, especially, facies analyses (Crimes 1975;Howard 1975;Rhoads 1975). It was the latterthe proven worth of trace fossils in paleoecological interpretation and environmental reconstruction that eventually generated the keen interest found in ichnology today, both as a subject worthy of serious attention and as a matter for increased uniformitarian comparisons.…”

“…6b). The traces found on bedding planes appear to be systematically constructed, convex epirelief structures (Hallam 1975) that meander across the sediment surface. They are probably Pascichnia (feeding trails) or Repichnia (locomotion traces) (terms from Seilacher 1964a,b); the former interpretation is preferred because the traces cover a considerable area of the sediment without reworking previously formed structures; this probably reflects the organism's grazing or its search for food.…”
