Relatively large burrows with crudely-developed spreiten, some arranged in a zig-zag pattern, occur in the Kløftelv Formation, Ella Ø, North-East Greenland. These trace fossils, tentatively identified as Teichichnus isp., are associated with sediment...

The first fossil echinoids are recorded from the Cayman Islands. A regular echinoid, Arbacia? sp., the spatangoids Brissus sp. cf. B. oblongus Wright and Schizaster sp. cf. S. americanus (Clark), and the clypeasteroid Clypeaster sp. are from the Midd... Read More about Neogene echinoids from the Cayman Islands, West Indies: regional implications.

Extant brachiopods and stalked crinoids are found together in the deeper waters of the Caribbean Sea. Analogous brachiopod/crinoid associations have been reported from diverse palaeoenvironments in the Neogene of the region. Studied examples include...
