| Abstract | A characteristic etching trace, comparable to those produced by pedicles of some Recent brachiopods, was found on a Late Cretaceous, Campanian oyster shell from a mangrove-like setting in the Åsen quarry, Sweden. The trace fossil belongs to the ichnospecies Podichnus centrifugalis Bromley & Surlyk, 1973 and is, together with a single specimen of Crania craniolaris Linnæus, 1758, the only evidence of brachiopods in the mangrove-like environment. |
