paleotrophodynamics. Ultimately, further progress in the identification of key
ichnotaxa and index ichnocoenoses indicative for specific environmental prop-
erties and their application to fossil material of any age will tell whether micro-
bioerosion analysis meets its potential of becoming a more regularly applied
tool in the characterization of paleoenvironments and sedimentary settings.
