Taxonomic remark From Wisshak et al., 2019: Bromley and D’Alessandro (1987) considered the ichnogenus Zapfella de Saint-Seine, 1954 as a subjective junior synonym of Rogerella de Saint-Seine, 1951. They did not touch upon the question of synonymy at the ichnofamily level, even though Codez and de Saint-Seine (1958) erected the ichnofamily Zapfellidae in the same paper as their Rogerellidae, with Zapfella as its type ichnogenus. With synonymous type ichnogenera, the two ichnofamilies are synonymous as well. As it is up to the first reviser to clarify the synonymy of synchronously erected taxa (ICZN 1999: Art. 24.2), we here select Rogerellidae Codez and de Saint-Seine, 1958 as the valid ichnotaxon, rendering Zapfellidae invalid.
