ICHNOGENUS RHIZOCORALLIUM IN THE PALEOGENE FLYSCH (OUTER WESTERN CARPATHIANS, POLAND)
Abstract
Ichnogenus Rhizocorallium widespread in shallow marine deposits occurs also in deep water Paleogene flysch of the Magura Nappe. It coexists with ichnogenera of the Zoophycos and Nereites ichnofacies in both distal and proximal flysch facies. Such a mode of Rhizocorallium occurrence does not conform with classical bathymetric and facial models of distribution of trace fossils. This leads to a conclusion that Rhizocorallium is a facies-crossing form.
