Originally named as an ichnospecies of Saurichnites by Hanns Bruno Geinitz in 1861, S. lacertoides was transferred to the newly created genus Dromopus by Othniel Charles Marsh in 1894, along with a new ichnospecies D. agilis from the United States.
[3] [1] Three ichnospecies of Ichniotherium have been proposed as valid: I. cotta, I. sphaerodactylum, and I. praesidentis. [ 1 ] In a 2007 study, the diadectid species Diadectes absitus was determined to be the track-maker associated with I. cotta tracks, and the related diadectid species Orobates pabsti was linked to I. praesidentis based on ...

Sketch by Richter (1926) showing spreite in a Diplocraterion parallelum burrow.. Diplocraterion is an ichnogenus describing vertical U-shaped burrows having a spreite (weblike construction) between the two limbs of the U. [1] [2] The spreite of an individual Diplocraterion trace can be either protrusive (between the paired tubes) or retrusive (below the paired tubes). [3]
The ichnospecies is named in honor of Jerry MacDonald, the discoverer and local collector of the ichnofauna of the Robledo Mountains. The prints had a width of 25 mm (1 in) and consisted of symmetrical series of three to four pairs of impressions, large paddle-shaped outer tracks of 12 mm (0.5 in) in length and two or three internal linear ...
