   Keywords : koproliter; carnivorous vertebrates; Germany; Münster Basin; Coprolites; Upper Cretaceous; sen krita; Münsterbassängen; Tyskland; rovlevande vertebrater; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

   Abstract : En omfattande samling koproliter från tre lokaler med sediment från sen kritatid i Münsterbassängen (nordvästra Tyskland) har studerats med en mängd olika analytiska tekniker med avsikten att belysa urtida trofiska nivåer och relationen mellan rovdjur och bytesdjur. Den fosfatiska sammansättningen, inneslutningar av benmaterial, storlek och form tyder på att de flesta eller samtliga koproliter producerades av rovlevande vertebrater. READ MORE
