<dinofyi-dinosaur slug="deuterotrisauropus"></dinofyi-dinosaur>†Deuterotrisauropus is an ichnogenus of tridactyl dinosaur tracks from Early Jurassic deposits of France. These footprints are attributed to a bipedal dinosaur, possibly a theropod or early ornithopod. Their discovery in European Early Jurassic strata contributes to documenting the colonization of western Europe by dinosaurs following the Triassic-Jurassic extinction.
Time Period
Deuterotrisauropus lived during the Jurassic Early period of the Mesozoic Era, approximately 201.4 to 174.7 million years ago.
After the Triassic-Jurassic extinction, dinosaurs rapidly diversified and became the dominant land vertebrates. Early sauropods and theropods began to evolve larger body sizes.
