摘要:
Despite the rarity of vertebrate body fossils in the Middle Jurassic of North America, tracks are relatively common in several stratigraphie units including non‐marine facies of the Carmel Formation (Middle Jurassic‐Bajocian‐Bathonian) of Utah. We describe a new distinctive ichnofauna consisting of at least 60 trackways discovered at two localities in the Vernal‐Jensen area of northeastern Utah. The trackways are dominated by small‐and medium‐sized tridactyl footprints attributed to theropods.
