Summary

[edit]
Description

Tracks from different parts of the tracksite area (see Fig. 3). These were originally assigned to Paravipus didactyloides.

Track outlines are highlighted with chalk, and left and right footprint indicated by even and odd numbers. Scale bar equals 10 cm.

A) Examples of superimposition and disturbance of tracks A13, C13, and D19.
B) Undisturbed tracks B18, C15, and D16 pointing in different directions with prominent sediment bulges around every pedal impression.
C) Undisturbed track B25 in an area of larger stride lengths.
D) Track A14/C14 to the right results from a superimposition of two nearly identical footprints and is disturbed by track E8 of the crossing trackway; tracks B20 and D18 on the left are undisturbed.
E) Undertracks are faintly visible where the original sandstone layer is lost due to erosion. Tracks included are A7, C7, B26, and D26.
F) Undisturbed track E4 of crossing trackway.
