---|---|---|
J. Y. Kim et al. 2008 | Medium-sized (~15 cm long and ~9.0 cm wide) didactyl tracks with slender digit impressions, very narrow (5°–10°) divarication angles between digits III and IV. Digit III slightly longer than IV. Digital pad impressions well-developed, sharp claw impressions distinct. Individual pes impressions show little rotation with respect to the trackway axis, i.e., digit III is directed cranially and nearly parallel to the trackway axis. |
