The boredom of belemnites: endoliths in belemnite guards from the
Cretaceous Speeton Clay
Paul D. Taylor, Earth Sciences - NHM
The Early Cretaceous Speeton Clay Formation is renowned for its rich and
diverse belemnite fauna. During October 2009 and March 2011 NHM field
parties collected numerous examples of Speeton belemnites from the coastal
exposures of the Speeton Clay south of Filey in East Yorkshire. These
collections have been used in a research project, undertaken jointly with
Consuelo Sendino and NHM volunteer Jane Barnbrook, on the previously
unstudied biota of boring organisms that infested dead belemnite guards
lying on the Cretaceous sea floor. At least 15 ichnotaxa of borings can be
recognized, ranging from brachiopod pedicle attachment traces (Podichnus),
to rosette-like traces believed to have been made by foraminifera
(Semidendrina), and putative fungal microborings (Orthogonum and
Saccomorpha). The study of these endoliths can provide evidence for
palaeoenvironmental conditions on the sea floor during deposition of the
Speeton Clay.
