	abstract = {New trace fossils found in the Late Pleistocene glaciolacustrine varves of the Connecticut River Valley, Vermont, USA represent the first known notostracan presence in glacial Lake Hitchcock. These unique trace fossils warrant a new ichnogenus and ichnospecies Surculichnus bifurcauda. The New England Varve Chronology (NEVC) constrains the initial presence of S. bifurcauda at similar to 13.3-13.2 kyr. The morphology of S. bifurcauda correlates well with notostracan characteristics and behavior. Sieving of bedding planes that contained S. bifurcauda produced one chitinous fossil that is suggestive of a notostracan telson. Neoichnological experimentation was conducted with the species Triops longicaudatus. During the subadult stage, T longicaudatus produced traces representative of locomotion and feeding behaviors, and at the adult stage reproduced S. bifurcauda, as well as Rusophycus. Possible explanations for the productions of these traces are egg laying or predation behaviors that are both related to maturity. Further research in the paleo- and modern ecology of glacial and nearctic lakes may shed more light on the maker of S. bifurcauda. (C) 2008 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.},

	abstract = {Trace fossils as paleoecological and paleobiogeographical tools in Pleistocene glaciolacustrine sediments have been largely ignored. Combining high resolution varve stratigraphy with trace fossil data can lead to refined paleoenvironmental interpretations during times of rapid climate change. Based on trace fossils from glaciolacustrine varves in the Connecticut and Merrimack River valleys, a new timeline for the reinhabitation of New England by fish and associated invertebrates has been constructed. In addition, it appears that colonization of the recently deglaciated environments occurred in at least four successional stages. If these stages can be recognized elsewhere, it may be possible to accurately model other postglacial migrations using trace fossils and varve chronostratigraphy. (C) 2008 Elsevier B.V.
