- W4240004041 abstract "In addition to skeletal remains that record the presence of a diverse vertebrate fauna, the Baynunah Formation also preserves fossil trackways. These are found on deflated surfaces of carbonate-rich beds, mainly at sites located inland from the coast. Footprints, like other trace fossils, may be difficult to assign to particular species, but provide a window onto ancient behavior that is not attainable from skeletal remains alone. Nine sites bearing fossil footprints have been identified to date in the Baynunah Formation. These are presented and described here, most for the first time. The large majority of footprints (and the most easily identifiable) were made by proboscideans, but three trackways belong to a large ungulate, probably a giraffid, and one print may be that of a hippopotamid. The site of Mleisa 1 is particularly important for its remarkable preservation of the passage of a proboscidean herd intersected by the trackway of a large solitary individual, showing that herding behavior, and possibly also sexual segregation, both hallmarks of modern elephants, were already present in late Miocene proboscideans. Given the large areas across which the carbonates of the Baynunah Formation are exposed inland, many more trackways likely remain to be discovered." @default.
