Description
SUMMARY: In Portugal, the studies on the ichnology of paleosols are giving the very first steps. Here we describe the wasp cocoons Fictovichnus sciuttoi found in the Oligocene of Calcários da Senhora das Necessidades and derived from carbonate paleosols (Celliforma Ichnofacies). The description of these trace fossils is based on a small collection deposited at the Museu Geológico.
