Descrição
Resumo:Three new dinosaur tracksites found in Formiche Alto (Teruel) are described in this paper: El Molino, Camino de Cabra y Barranco de los Arcos. These sites are near Jurassic-Cretaceous boundary in age (Villar del Arzobispo Formation, ranging from Tithonian to Berriasian). The outcrops show higher number of manus prints than pes. The footprints are attributed both to small and large sauropod dinosaurs but there are some tridactyl tracks too. The presence of sauropod footprints from the Villar del Arzobispo Formation is also common in other sites recorded in the province of Teruel
