Despite its rich fauna and flora that is represented by at least 50,000 fossil vertebrates, insects and other invertebrates, plants and trace fossils, the taphonomy of the biota is still poorly understood. In particular, the anurans have not been the focus of taphonomic investigation. Here, we analysed the skeletal taphonomy of 168 anurans from Geiseltal and scored each specimen for orientation, completeness...
