Fossil Biomarkers and Biosignatures Preserved in Coprolites Reveal Carnivorous Diets in the Carboniferous Mazon Creek Ecosystem

SIMPLE SUMMARY: Coprolites (fossilised faeces) can preserve important dietary information through geological time, offering insights into extinct animal diets. When digestion of dietary items leaves no unambiguous morphology to reconstruct the food spectrum of a coprolite producer, preserved biomole...
