TLDR
The validity of the monotypic ichnogenus Thatchtelithichnus has been called into question due to an inference that it is a bioclaustration as mentioned in this paper.Abstract:
The validity of the monotypic ichnogenus Thatchtelithichnus has been called into question due to an inference that it is a bioclaustration. Close analysis of the Thatchtelithichnus holmani holotype...read more

Journal ArticleDOI
First authentic record of the freshwater turtle Mauremys from the Upper Pliocene of Italy, with a new occurrence of the rarely reported ichnotaxon Thatchtelithichnus holmani
TL;DR: In this article, the authors reported on a new fossil specimen of Mauremys from the Upper Pliocene (Piacenzian) marginal-marine deposits of Tuscany (central Italy).

The occurrence of bone modification features in the carapace and plastron of the extant red-eared slider trachemys scripta elegans (wied-neuwied, 1839): implications for paleoecological analyses of fossil turtle assemblages
TL;DR: In this article , the carapace and plastron bones of the emydid turtle Trachemys scripta elegans were examined for non-ontogenetic features such as pits, grooves, holes, wounds, abrasions, and pathological growth structures.

BONE MODIFICATION FEATURES RESULTING FROM BARNACLE ATTACHMENT ON THE BONES OF LOGGERHEAD SEA TURTLES (Caretta caretta), CUMBERLAND ISLAND, GEORGIA, USA: IMPLICATIONS FOR THE PALEOECOLOGICAL, AND TAPHONOMIC ANALYSES OF FOSSIL SEA TURTLES
TL;DR: Barnacle-related pits, divots, and holes are believed to result from barnacle mediated chemical corrosion into the outer surface of sea turtle bone as discussed by the authors , and the presence of these traces provides one of the few preservable lines of evidence of barnacle interactions with sea turtle hosts.

New records of Testudines from the Presidente Prudente formation of the Bauru group (Late Cretaceous), with a revised diagnosis for Roxochelys wanderleyi and palaeoichnological remarks
TL;DR: In this paper , the authors described new turtle remains from the Late Cretaceous Presidente Prudente Formation, collected in two relatively underexplored municipalities in the western part of the state of São Paulo.

TL;DR: The term ‘work of an animal' should be deleted from the code, and ichnotaxa should be based solely on trace fossils as defined herein, and the following emendations are proposed to the International Code of Zoological Nomenclature.

Use of dermestid beetles for cleaning bones.
TL;DR: Dermestid beetles are useful as a technique to clean bones, especially for the parts of the skeleton which are difficult to dissect by hand, when the bones were cleaned by dermestes maculatus beetles or manually.

Application of forensic science techniques to trace fossils on dinosaur bones from a quarry in the Upper Jurassic Morrison Formation, northeastern Wyoming
TL;DR: In this article, trace fossils on sauropod skeletons from a quarry in fluvial deposits of the Morrison Formation, Wyoming, are used to reconstruct the taphonomic history of the dinosaur bone accumulation.

Ichnotaxobases for Bioerosion Trace Fossils in Bones
TL;DR: The most common general morphologies are: pits and holes (borings), chambers; trails; tubes; channels (canals); grooves; striae; and furrows as discussed by the authors.

Bioerosion ichnotaxa: review and annotated list
TL;DR: The status quo of an inventory of all bioerosion ichnotaxa is presented, and a suite of 14 additional ichnofamilies are introduced: Gastrochaenolitidae, Talpinidae, Entobiaidae, Planobulidae, and Saccomorphidae are introduced.
