Ceratopsipes goldenensis is an ichnospecies of dinosaur footprint, described in 1995 from the Laramie Formation in Colorado. [1] It is represented by massive pes prints approaching 80 centimetres (31 in) in width.
†Otozoum moodii Hitchcock, 1847 (type ichnospecies) Otozoum ("giant animal") is an extinct ichnogenus ( fossilized footprints and other markings) of sauropodomorph dinosaur from the Late Triassic - Middle Jurassic sandstones .
Limnopus is an ichnogenus of ancient tetrapod footprint.Its footprints have been found in Moscovian aged-rocks situated in Alveley, Shropshire, England, Colorado and West Virginia.
Experts believe that the footprint was most likely left by a dinosaur (grallator) that stood about 75 centimeters (29.5 inches) tall and 2.5 meters (about 8 feet) long and walked on its two hind feet. [11] [12] The scientists called the girl's discovery "the finest impression of a 215 million-year-old dinosaur print found in Britain in a decade ...

A trace fossil, also known as an ichnofossil (/ ˈ ɪ k n oʊ f ɒ s ɪ l /; from Greek: ἴχνος ikhnos "trace, track"), is a fossil record of biological activity by lifeforms but not the preserved remains of the organism itself. [1]
Argoides is an ichnogenus of dinosaur footprint, originally named as an ichnospecies of Ornithichnites, [1] [2] left by what was possibly an ornithopod, although due to the age of the tracks (some of which predate the oldest known ornithopod fossils), they were probably instead made by theropods.

Anticheiropus is an ichnogenus of dinosaur footprint belonging to a saurischian. [1] It has only been discovered in Massachusetts (Portland Formation, Newark Supergroup).Two ichnospecies are known (both are known from a single footprint): [2] [3] A. hamatus and A. pilulatus, both discovered around 1863 and named by Edward Hitchcock in 1865.
