  • Descrição: In the comment on our paper (this issue), Zatoń (2020) questions the conclusions reported in Błażejowski et al. (2019). We present further arguments defending our theses. Late Jurassic horseshoe crabs preserved in sediments of the Kcynia Formation, (Owadów-Brzezinki Quarry), lived in a restricted lagoon repeatedly subjected to dysoxia/anoxia, which promoted their excellent state of preservation. The palaeobiological interpretation of the traces visible on horseshoe crab exoskeletons is consistent with the occurrence of temporal oxygen deficiency. •We present further arguments defending our theses.•The oxygen-deficient environment effectively led to the death of the horseshoe crabs and promoted their exceptional preservation.•The dendritic shape of the traces is consistent with the given interpretation that they resulted from the activity of a fungal-like organism.
