“…The count of ~67 tracks represents one of the highest track densities known from the Mesozoic, and is also one of the highest diversities (Table 2 ). The recent report 17 of an Angolan assemblage of ~70 small tracks (numbers 1–70) on a “chaotically trampled” surface, indicates a similar density. This study’s sketch map showed 42 of these numbered tracks (35 mammaliamorph and 7 crocodylomorph) in an area of about 1.0 × 1.6 m (1.60 m 2 ), with an additional crocodylomorph trackway making the tracked area ~1.80 m 2 .…”

However, no mammaliamorph trackway configurations were described from the Angolan sample, and manus and pes tracks were not distinguished, even in the case of the holotype (no.…”
