They help in dating other fossils found in the same sedimentary layer. For example, if you find a fossil from an unknown era near a fossil from a known time, you can assume that the two species were from about the same time. Examples of index fossils include: Ammonites were common during the Mesozoic Era (245 to 65 mya), They were not found after the Cretaceous period, as they went extinct during the K-T extinction (65 mya).

There are many types of trace fossils. Even the lack of trace fossils can yield information; the lack of tail-furrow fossils indicates an erect tail stance for dinosaurs that were previously believed to have dragged their tails. Trackways (sets of footprints) Dinosaur tracks , usually made in mud or fine sand, have been found at over 1500 sites, including quarries, coal mines , riverbeds, deserts, and mountains. There are so many of these fossils because each dinosaur made many tracks (but had only one skeleton) and because tracks fossilize well. Ichnotaxia (fossil footprints) have yielded information about:

Paleontology Southern Fossils - Paleontology By R. Ewan Fordyce New Zealand has a rich and distinctive fossil record. Fossils from the Paleozoic and much of the Mesozoic - the Triassic and Jurassic - indicate links with the ancient southern continent of Gondwana. Younger fossils, from the Cretaceous and Cenozoic, record the gradual development of New Zealand's distinctive modern biota, following the breakup of Gondwana. Our web pages show you some of the more-distinctive fossils studied by Department staff, and some of the more significant fossils from southern New Zealand. Students enrolled in our courses work closely with such material. Some spectacular or important fossils – and rocks and minerals - are on display in our Geology Museum , which is open to the public. These fossils have been collected by staff and students in a century of field work mainly in southern regions. The Geology Museum at the University of Otago now contains the South Island's largest fossil collection

Mistaken assessments The bones exposed by Jim Jensen, of Brigham Young University, at the Dry Mesa Quarry, Utah were originally believed to fit in to the largest dinosaur ever, so the name was widely used by the press and in scientific text. Haang Mook Kim published a paper in 1983, telling a new dinosaur which he named Ultrasaurus tabriensis , because he supposed it was an equally giant relative of Jensen's dinosaur. However, Kim's assessment was wrong. His dinosaur was much smaller than he believed, because mistook a leg bone (femur) for an arm bone (humerus). But since Kim was the first to issue the name Ultrasaurus, the name officially applies to the South Korean dinosaur. Jensen published a paper recitation his discovery in 1985, but since the name Ultrasaurus was already in use (preoccupied), his discovery was renamed in 1991 to

Site Map Florissant Fossil Beds National Monument contains one of the most complete records of an Eocene forest ecosystem. Scientists have only recently begun to understand the complex processes by which fossils here at Florissant Fossil Beds have been preserved. Remarkably, the process of fossilization depended a great deal on little-known microscopic animals called Diatoms! Notice as you browse through these pages of plants and insects, the fact that we have preserved at Florissant a wonderful snapshot of a nearly complete forest ecosystem with plants, herbivores and their predators. Florissant gives us the opportunity to witness a moment in time during a point in Earth's history when the global climate was beginning to drastically change. It is our duty as stewards of this land to preserve this valuable resource for our children to study and learn from, just as we are today.

39. Trace Fossils This page describes some of the key features of trace fossils. http://www.peripatus.gen.nz/Paleontology/TraFos.html

Peripatus Home Page Paleontology Updated: 17 Jun 2006 Trace Fossils Abstract Trace fossils are indirect evidence of life in the rock record. There are several fundamental differences between traces and body fossils, which lead to their unique classification and nomenclature. In general they make poor zone fossils, but they are powerful tools in palaeoenvironmental interpretation. Studies show various general trends in their diversity and range, throughout the Phanerozoic. There are several sites around the world where a wide range and diversity can be observed. Keywords: bioerosion; bioturbation; ethology; ichnology; trace fossil Introduction Trace fossils, or ichnofossils (from the Greek ikhnos meaning "track" or "trace"), are those structures and details preserved in rocks that provide indirect evidence of life in the past, or indeed "traces" of it. The most familiar of these are the tracks, trails, burrows, gastroliths, coprolites, impressions, borings, etc., made by invertebrates of all phyla (Pickerill 1994), but craniates, plants, fungi, and bacteria also contribute significantly to their number. The study of trace fossils, ichnology, can be divided into two distinct fields: palaeoichnology (ancient, fossilised traces) and neoichnology (modern traces created by extant organism groups). This is a subdivision of convenience - it is not to say that a palaeoichnologist would have nothing to do with modern traces or vice versa, it is quite the opposite - the two areas are linked inextricably. In fact, this link is one of the few occasions where the principle of uniformitarianism is turned on its head. Lebensspuren such as traces are much easier to study and much better known in fossil form than they are when freshly created in soft sediments today, therefore in this case "the past is the key to the present". This converse property is one of the major differences identified by Adolf Seilacher (1967) between trace and body fossils. The other differences, as well as many of the major trace fossil properties and points of contention in ichnology today, are discussed below.
