Diagnosis
| Reference | Diagnosis | |
|---|---|---|
| J. Li et al. 2012 | Habitual quadruped with tridactyl pes and blunt ungual traces, and a large pentadactyl manus, appearing as a Moyenosauripus-like trackway, but differs from Moyenosauripus in having much larger manus (reduced heteropody) and no hallux traces in pes, and blunt, rather than sharp pes and manus digit claw traces. Distinctive metapodial and tail traces of Moyenosauripus are also lacking. |
