Abstract
The paper describes specimens believed to be coprolites and referred to genus Bactryllium Heer from the Lower Triassic rocks at Temple Hill, Khrew, Kashmir Himalaya. These bodies of excrement appear close to some pelecypod fecal pellets, and may be inferred as coprolites produced by pelecypods. A fair number of micropelecypod shells occur with these coprolites, in association with ostracodes, foraminiferids, microgastropods, microvertebrates and age-diagnostic conodont species.
