Taphrhelminthopsis minimus Pacześna, 1996

Taxon description

Pacześna, 1996

Description. Very fine, bilobate trace with clearly developed centrally situated furrow. Surface of lobes is smooth. Traces can form irregular meanders that do not cross themselves and occur in semi-relief as convex hypichnia. Comparison. The basis for distinguishing a new ichnospecies is primarily the exceptionally fine dimensions of the trace and the distinctly weaker tendency to meander than that developed in comparison with Taphrhelminthopsis from the Carpathian Flysch. Taphrhelminthopsis minimus nov. ichnosp. differs from Bilinichnus Fedonkin et Palij above all in its irregular course with a tendency to form meanders and clear bilobateness.
