文摘
- •
Remains of a Tremadocian palaeoscolecid worm were recovered from the Fezouata Shale.
- •
This species was as-yet known from the Ordovician of Perunica and possibly Baltica.
- •
A mostly epibenthic lifestyle is inferred based on absence of bioturbation.
- •
A sediment-filled gut and co-occurrences with Tomaculum coprolites are documented.
- •
These are interpreted as evidences for deposit feeding in palaeoscolecids.
