Observations on the ichnospecies Monomorphichnus multilineatus from the Nagaur Sandstone (Cambrian Series 2-Stage 4), Marwar Supergroup, India

Abstract: The Ediacaran-Cambrian Marwar Supergroup exposed in the western Rajasthan, India yielded abundant sigmoidal scratches assigned to ichnospecies Monomorphichnus multilineatus from the Nagaur Sandstone belonging to the Cambrian (Series 2-Stage 4). Nagaur M. multilineatus are recorded from the intertidal regime. It is an addition to already known depositional environments for this ichnospecies, which are known from shallow marine, wave-dominated, to non-marine or brackish water and storm-dominated sequences. Class… Show more

“…9A-F). A number of scratch marks and burrows, supposed to be produced by different types of trilobites or other arthropods, are reported from this unit (Kumar & Pandey 2008Sharma & Pandey 2011;Singh et al 2013;Ahmad & Kumar 2014). Treptichnus pedum is characteristically found in shallow, fully marine to marginal-marine environments (Geyer & Uchman 1995, MacNaugton & Narbonne 1999.…”

“…While the microbial mat structures from siliciclastics was reported from 3.48 Ga siliciclastics of the Dresser Formation, Pilbara in Australia (Noffke et al, 2013), the 1.8 Ga palaeodesert deposits of the Waterberg Group in South Africa recorded the oldest continental example (Eriksson et al, 2000). Increasing numbers of MRS have been described in recent years from some Precambrian basins of India ( Fig.1) including Vindhyan basin (Sarkar et al, 2005(Sarkar et al, , 2006(Sarkar et al, , 2014Banerjee and Jeevankumar, 2005;Banerjee et al, 2010Banerjee et al, , 2014, Chhattisgarh (Chakraborty et al, 2010;Sarkar et al 2014), Cuddapah (Chakrabarti andShome, 2010, Pranhita (Deb et al, 2007) and Marwar (Sarkar et al, 2008;Samanta et al, 2011Samanta et al, , 2015Kumar and Ahmad, 2016;Pandey and Sharma, 2018). Authors investigate microbial matoriginated structures within siliciclastic sedimentary succession from several Proterozoic basins of India and highlight the influence of microbial mat on sequence building pattern and sedimentation dynamics of Precambrian sedimentary succession.…”
