Pablo2427 Posted August 28, 2017 Share Posted August 28, 2017 Hi everyone! I'm having some trouble classifying some ichnofossils which date back to the middle Miocene. They come from lacustrine/low-energy continental waters. If it helps, I've already identified some other ichnofossils in the area such as Celliforma, Planolites, Psilonichnus, Scoyenia, Palaeophycus, Teisseirei, Camborygma... This first photos are gallery "dead ends" which from my point of view share many caracteristics and should be a recognised ichnogenera. They show striation lines in the ventral part, some kind of "leg dragging" This second set seems like pupation chambers to me. They share some characters with Rebuffoichnus but I don't know for sure what it may be Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doushantuo Posted August 28, 2017 Share Posted August 28, 2017 I'm totally intrigued. You 've identified a suite of ichnofossils,and you need our help with this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pablo2427 Posted August 28, 2017 Author Share Posted August 28, 2017 This third ones seem like a Rebuffoichnus but with the opening in 90 degrees instead of vertical. I've found some others like this and they seem to be the top part of a bigger elipsoidal chamber Yes... These ones are driving me crazy hahahaha Thanks in advance to everyone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

doushantuo Posted August 28, 2017 Share Posted August 28, 2017 For all sorts of reasons,i'd edit your last post referring to r*s***c*g*** Both.Mostly on "mediterranean" and/or Miocene subjects Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

doushantuo Posted August 28, 2017 Share Posted August 28, 2017 once more,one of my poorly worded posts is immortalized.What's a possessive pronoun, again? why "lacustrine?"(or "continental-/non-marine") facies?stratigraphy?palynology?charophytes?Ostracods?All of the above? Genise(below) on pupation chambers and related subjects Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Facies, that I've know the place for a lot of time and I've found Gomphotheriums and fossils equids, also the other ichnofossils I've found and there are plenty of paleontological studies with say it in the paleoecology section. But they never mention ichnofossils... And also ostracods andcharofites. Well, all of the above 10 minutes ago, doushantuo said: once more,one of my poorly worded posts is immortalized.What's a possessive pronoun, again? why "lacustrine?"(or "continental-/non-marine") facies?stratigraphy?palynology?charophytes?Ostracods?All of the above?

Pablo2427 Posted August 28, 2017 Author Share Posted August 28, 2017 Thanks for your help It's funny that one of my friends has a similar pupation chamber from the Canary Islands also and I never thought I was going to classify mines with a pdf from there hahaha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pablo2427 Posted August 28, 2017 Author Share Posted August 28, 2017 I let you a link to another forum where I have posted some of the ichnofossils of this place. Just in Case you are curious... It's in Spanish http://fomiro.mforos.com/1278653/12916414-icnofosiles-y-paleoecologia-del-mioceno-de-la-cuenca-del-duero/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doushantuo Posted August 28, 2017 Share Posted August 28, 2017 good post,that. I read spanish,Today I guided two Spanish tourists to our "cathedral" . Edit:their ears must be hurting from my pronounciation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pablo2427 Posted August 28, 2017 Author Share Posted August 28, 2017 Hahahaha That happens to me but in English I think I don't need to say that all of you are welcome in that forum, it's has a pretty good database for classification called "Fosilpedia", which is quite similar to the one in this forum. Thanks again for your help and cheers from Spain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
