The Connecticut River Valley trackways are the fossilised footprints of a number of Early Jurassic dinosaurs or other archosauromorphs from the sandstone beds of Massachusetts and Connecticut. The finding has the distinction of being among the first known discoveries of dinosaur remains in North America.
The footprints, dating back to the Early Cretaceous period, were found in Brazil and in Cameroon, researchers wrote in a study published Monday by the New Mexico Museum of Natural History & Science.
The footprints were first discovered in the 1960s by station manager, Glen Seymour, in the nearby Seymour Quarry. Palaeontologists from the Queensland Museum, including Mary Wade and Tony Thulborn and the University of Queensland excavated Lark Quarry during 1976–77 (the quarry was named after Malcolm Lark, a volunteer who removed a lot of the overlying rock.)

Trace fossils, also called ichnofossils, are structures preserved in sedimentary rocks that record biological activity. Trace fossils made by dinosaurs include such nonbody remains as footprints, eggs, and coprolites (fossil feces), and are important documents of the activities of dinosaurs in life.
A 10-year-old found 220-million-year-old dinosaur tracks in Wales while fossil hunting.. Tegan Jones and her mother found the tracks, which hadn't been seen in over 140 years. An expert thinks a ...
Grallator (GRA-lÉ™-tor) is an ichnogenus (form taxon based on footprints) which covers a common type of small, three-toed print made by a variety of bipedal theropod dinosaurs. Grallator-type footprints have been found in formations dating from the Early Triassic through to the early Cretaceous periods.
