Buchholzbrunnichnus is an Ediacaran trace fossil from the Nama group in South West Africa. This is a trace fossil of a lophotrochozoa, because it is described as "mollusk like" by Gerard B Germs, who discovered this trace fossil.

There is no body fossil associated with the creature that made this particular ichnofossil, so the impact it had on the Nama ecosystem is unknown. Yet, it is a notable find as it points to evidence that mollusk-like creatures inhabited the pre-Cambrian biota.
