Abstract
    The digging cycle of Solecurtus strigilatus involves five phases, culminating in the powerful injection of a narrow jet of water into the sediment around the active foot. The animal burrows deeply into the sea floor and avoids capture by rapid escape burrowing to over 50 cm deep. The established burrow is Y-shaped, the gradual shifting of which produces an oblique, laminated structure equivalent to the sprite trace fossil Teichichnus.
