A New Decapod Trackway from the Upper Cretaceous, James Ross Island, Antarctica
A new trace fossil, Foersterichnus rossensis igen. nov. and isp. nov., is described from the Coniacian Hidden Lake Formation, James Ross Island, Antarctica. The trace fossil is a trackway comprising straight, or slightly curving, paired rows of elongate to tear‐shaped impressions, parallel or slight...
