This book is devoted to the ichnology of insects and associated trace fossils in soils and paleosols. The traces described here mostly nests and pupation chambers include one of the most complex architectures produced by animals. Chapters explore the walls shapes and fillings of trace fossils followed by their classifications and ichnotaxonomy. Detailed descriptions and interpretations for different groups of insects like bees ants termites dung beetles and wasps are also provided. Chapters also highlight the the paleoenvironmental significance of insect trace fossils in paleosols for paleontological reconstructions sedimentological interpretation and ichnofabrics analysis. Readers will discover how insect trace fossils act as physical evidence for reconstructing the evolution of behavior phylogenies past geographical distributions and to know how insects achieved some of the more complex architectures. The book will appeal to researchers and graduate students in ichnology sedimentology paleopedology and entomology and readers interested in insect architecture.
