The ichnogenus Thalassinoides: burrow fossil produced by crustaceans from the Middle Jurassic, Makhtesh Qatan, southern Israel. An ichnotaxon (plural ichnotaxa) is "a taxon based on the fossilized work of an organism", i.e. the non-human equivalent of an artifact.
Grallator footprints are characteristically three-toed (tridactyl) and range from 10 to 20 centimeters (or 4 to 8 inches) long. Though the tracks show only three toes, the trackmakers likely had between four and five toes on their feet.
Anatrisauropus is an ichnogenus of dinosaur footprint, possibly belonging to a saurischian. [2] It has only been discovered in Lesotho ( Molteno Formation and Karoo Basin ). Three ichnospecies are known: A. camisardi , A. ginsburgi [ 1 ] and A. hereroensis ; all of which were named by Paul Ellenberger between 1965 and 1972.
The trackway Protichnites from the Cambrian, Blackberry Hill, central Wisconsin. 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.

Anomoepus is the name assigned to several fossil footprints first reported from Early Jurassic beds of the Connecticut River Valley, Massachusetts, US in 1802.. Map showing tracks of Anomoepus (green) and Grallator (blue) in Moyeni
Bellatoripes (Latin for "warlike foot") is an ichnogenus of footprint produced by a large theropod dinosaur so far known only from the Late Cretaceous of Alberta and British Columbia in Canada. The tracks are large and three-toed, and based on their size are believed to have been made by tyrannosaurids , such as Albertosaurus and Daspletosaurus .
†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 .
Shape the footprint The confusing history of dinosaur footprints means many kinds of theropod tracks have been put into the Megalosauripus ichnogenus, [ 4 ] even though they were an entirely different ichnospecies.
