Lower Palaeozoic trace fossils from eastern Newfoundland

Arthropod trace fossils are described from the Cambro-Ordovician sequence of Conception Bay. The sedimentological and ichnofaunal aspect is typical of an Acado-Mediterranean Province, but a few unique forms occur, including Rusophycus leifeirikssoni n. ichnosp. and R. cf. R. jenningsi. An effort is...
