Vertebrate Ichnology: Tetrapod Tracks and Trackways

Editat de Spencer G Lucas, Adrian Hunt P, Hendrik Klein
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 12 dec 2024
Vertebrate Ichnology: Introduction, History, Methodology and Devonian-Neogene Tetrapod Tracks is a complete review and analysis of vertebrate trace fossils, including how vertebrate trace fossils inform our understanding of major evolutionary events. It covers all aspects of the vertebrate trace fossil record including tetrapod footprints, fish traces and other trails, burrows, nests and more. Each record is reviewed by prominent experts with extensive illustrations and can be used as a tool to solve problems of vertebrate biochronology and biogeography. Megabiases in the record are identified, and trace fossils applied to analysis and the understanding of major events in the evolutionary history of vertebrates. This is a useful daily reference for paleontologists and geologists; and teaching professors or other researchers working in trace fossils and related fields, including university and graduate students.


  • Fully covers all aspects of the vertebrate trace fossil record through review and analysis
  • Includes not only footprints, but all other kinds of vertebrate traces, bringing to the forefront relatively understudied vertebrate trace fossils
  • Written by the most active and informed experts on vertebrate trace fossils for an up-to-date and authoritative reference
