Abstract

The Middle Triassic of Winterswijk has yielded an interesting ichnofauna (reptilian and amphibian footprints) during the past few years. Recently discovered new species add greatly to our knowledge of the Winterswijk fauna. Three vertebrate tracks are described and illustrated: Brachychirotherium paraparvum, Coelurosaurichnus ratumensis and Sustenodactylus hollandicus. Some remarks on species described earlier are added.
