Coprolites from the Viséan of East Kirkton, West Lothian, Scotland
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 03 November 2011
Abstract
Coprolites are most common in the transition zone between the East Kirkton Limestone and the Little Cliff Shale. One hundred and twenty five samples are classified in five groups on the basis of size and shape. Within these groups distinctive subgroups are described. Many of the coprolites are believed to have been produced by fish, but some could have been produced by eurypterids and aquatic tetrapods.
