Early Molluscan Evolution: Evidence From the Trace Fossil Record

Abstract: For many organisms, chemoreception is critical for activities such as foraging, the detection of potential mates, and the avoidance of possible predators. The spatial pattern of odors, the odor landscape, is a function of the distribution of the odor sources and of fluid dynamics. Microscopic organisms, and probably most infaunal organisms, are in a physical realm where the detection of distant odor sources is controlled by diffusion and movement that takes place in response to chemical gradients.

“…Seilacher and Hagadorn () included the Early Cambrian Psammichnites in their proposed line of descendance of naked molluscs starting from the Ediacaran Kimberella (leaving also probable radular scratch marks), the Late Cambrian (Furongian) Climactichnites ‐ Musculopodus animal with radular scratches, and the mainly Carboniferous ‘ Aulichnites ‐ Olivellites ’ and Dictyodora (Mángano et al . ).…”

“…While feeding at the clay-lime interface with loop-forming behaviour, it did not strengthen the channel walls that were later filled with sediment from the clay layer. Seilacher and Hagadorn (2010) included the Early Cambrian Psammichnites in their proposed line of descendance of naked molluscs starting from the Ediacaran Kimberella (leaving also probable radular scratch marks), the Late Cambrian (Furongian) Climactichnites-Musculopodus animal with radular scratches, and the mainly Carboniferous 'Aulichnites-Olivellites' and Dictyodora (M angano et al 2002). There is a possibility that halkieriid molluscs were involved in production of the Siberian traces (Seilacher-Drexler & Seilacher 1999).…”

“…Many of these interactions record animal grazing on biomats as a food resource. Examples of this include radular rasping at the top of fossil mats 6,[14][15][16] or systematic probing and mining at the base of fossil biomats 17,18 . By the dawn of the Cambrian period, back-filled undermat grazing burrows are comparably common.…”

“…9). Psammichnites is interpreted as the trace of an infaunal deposit feeder (probably a mollusc) with a snorkel-like device Seilacher, 2007;Seilacher and Hagadorn, 2010;Alonso-Muruaga et al, 2013). Psammichnites is a common component of the Psilonichnus and Cruziana ichnofacies, being reported from intertidal flats MacEachern et al, 2012).…”
