Finds of fossil wood with bivalve wood borings (Teredolites clavatus and T. longissimus) occur in various facies and presumed sedimentary settings of the platform, chiefly shallow-marine Bohemian Crectaceous Basin. The basin comprises areas with sandy-dominated sediments, with marl and clay-dominated sediments, areas with predominat sandy-marly rocks, and finally areas dominated by calcareous nearshore sediments. Teredolites clavatus is sometimes very common in fossil wood of sandstones, which originated in beach or deltaic settings; marl and clay-dominated rock bear much more frequently wood fragments densely bored by Teredolites longissimus. When accompanied by evidence of marine environments as body fossils, glauconite or typical trace fossils, most of the wood fragments are bored.

Nálezy fosilních dřev z České křídové pánve pocházejí z různých horizontů a facií. Teredolites clavatus je často jediným paleontologickým indikátorem mořského prostředí.
