Abstract

The Acacus section in SW Libya provides a unique opportunity to match graptolite stratigraphy in the anoxic facies with trace fossil stratigraphy in the prograding sandy facies of a Silurian basin. In the Lower Silurian part of the Acacus Sandstone, behavioural modifications of Cruziana acacensis may allow further refinement of the established ichnostratigraphic scheme
