Cruziana traces from the Late Silurian (Pridoli) carbonate shelf of Saaremaa, Estonia
Late Pridoli Cruziana traces have recently been found in carbonate shelf sediments of the Ohesaare Formation on Saaremaa Island, Estonia. Cruziana isp. is interpreted here as a locomotory trace (repichnia) of an arthropod, possibly a trilobite. Cruziana traces previously known from the Silurian of B...
