Abstract
In 2018, Ron Pickerill, a dear friend and mentor to many of us, passed away. He is well remembered by us and note that his obituary appeared earlier in this journal (Donovan et al. 2019). This volume is a small tribute to a man who was a fine taxonomist and paleontologist. His work and life were dedicated to ichnological learning and teaching, as well as tireless reviewing and editing. The papers dedicated herein reflect his career. The first paper in the volume is by Rob McNaughton, an early protégé of Ron’s and the trace fossil discussed therein, Psammichnites, was one of Ron’s favorites. Kaur’s paper is next and it presents Cambrian trace fossils from India. It is worth noting that this paper resonates with some of Ron’s most
2018年,我们许多人的挚友和导师罗恩·皮克里尔去世了。我们对他印象深刻,并注意到他的讣告出现在本杂志的早些时候(Donovan et al. 2019)。这本书是一个小小的敬意的人谁是一个优秀的分类学家和古生物学家。他的工作和生活致力于技术的学习和教学,以及不知疲倦的审查和编辑。在此奉献的论文反映了他的职业生涯。本卷的第一篇论文是由罗布·麦克诺顿(Rob McNaughton)撰写的,他是罗恩早期的一位前任,文中讨论的化石痕迹——Psammichnites——是罗恩最喜欢的化石之一。下一篇是考尔的论文,它展示了来自印度的寒武纪痕迹化石。值得注意的是,这篇文章与罗恩的一些最具共鸣
期刊介绍:
The foremost aim of Ichnos is to promote excellence in ichnologic research. Primary emphases center upon the ethologic and ecologic significance of tracemaking organisms; organism-substrate interrelationships; and the role of biogenic processes in environmental reconstruction, sediment dynamics, sequence or event stratigraphy, biogeochemistry, and sedimentary diagenesis. Each contribution rests upon a firm taxonomic foundation, although papers dealing solely with systematics and nomenclature may have less priority than those dealing with conceptual and interpretive aspects of ichnology. Contributions from biologists and geologists are equally welcome.
The format for Ichnos is designed to accommodate several types of manuscripts, including Research Articles (comprehensive articles dealing with original, fundamental research in ichnology), and Short Communications (short, succinct papers treating certain aspects of the history of ichnology, book reviews, news and notes, or invited comments dealing with current or contentious issues). The large page size and two-column format lend flexibility to the design of tables and illustrations. Thorough but timely reviews and rapid publication of manuscripts are integral parts of the process.
