Dominant ichnotaxa identified in chalk from the Buda Formation: (a) basal view of Thalassinoides isp. [Th], A-1 locality; (b) cross-sectional view of an interval with pervasive Chondrites isp. [Ch], “Shanklin, W.R.2” core; (c) cross-sectional view of abundant Bichordites isp. (Bi) and its preservational variant “Laminites” [La], DR33-B locality; (d) cross-sectional view of polished slab showing Taenidium isp. cross-cut by ?Chondrites isp., DR1 locality; (e) cross-sectional view of Palaeophycus isp. [Pa] and Planolites isp. [Pl], “Shanklin, W.R.2” core; (f) cross-sectional view of Teichichnus rectus [Te], DR-33B locality; (g) basal view of deposits showing partially preserved Protovirgularia isp. [Pr] and adjacent Lockeia siliquaria [Lo] cross-cut by Trypanites isp. [Try], SA-1 locality; (h) cross-sectional view of Bergaueria isp. [Be], A-1 locality; (i) cross-sectional view of a passively filled (firmground) Thalassinoides isp., showing intergradation with Gyrolithes isp. [Gy] at the bottom, DR16 locality.
