Taphonomy, a subdiscipline of paleontology, is generally concerned with everything that happens from the death of an organism through to the discovery of its fossil. Here we propose the concept of fossilisation ecology, which extends taphonomy by formalising the idea that the ecology of an organism may affect its fossilisation.
