Early Cambrian trace fossils from the Tal Formation of the Mussoorie Syncline, India

A significant assemblage of trace fossils is presently described from the lowermost Quartzite member of Upper Tal Formation, in addition to earlier described trace fossils from Himachal Pradesh. The most common trace fossils described here are Monomorphichnus isp, Dimorphichnus isp., Dimorphichnus isp A, Diplichnites isp A, Planolites isp, Skolithos isp, Merostomichnites isp, ?Neonereites isp, along with various scratch marks and burrows. The present assemblage could represent the middle to upper part of the Early Cambrian.
