Organic tubular and trace fossil taxa co-occur locally, and indeed over millions of years.
“Organic tubular and trace fossil taxa co-occur locally, and indeed over millions of years (supporting 4 and 8, but contra 17).”
From Integrated records of environmental change and evolution challenge the Cambrian Explosion (2019) · cites this paper as [17]
The Savannah Hypothesis section reports traces and a diverse tubular fauna in the same Wood Canyon Formation stratigraphic section, supporting local association. The Introduction and Ecological Antagonism sections place tubular body fossils and trace fossils in the terminal Ediacaran, but do not establish that specifically organic tubular taxa co-occurred with trace taxa over millions of years.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
