Abstract

The dinosaur footprints and trackways of São Luís Basin are found in six ichnosites of São Luís and Alcântara counties: Ponta da Guia, Ponta do Farol, Praia do Boqueirão, Ilha do Medo, Praia da Baronesa and Praia Prefeitura de Alcântara. There are trackways and isolated footprints attributed to small and large theropods, sauropods and ornithopods. These footprints occur in the Cenomanian fine-grained quartz sandstones of the Alcântara Formation. The track-bearing strata of the São Luís Basin compose the São Luís Megatracksite, with the tracksites of this region located along the early equatorial seashore of the Atlantic Ocean. The environmental scenery during the Cenomanian comprises many sub environments associated with an estuary that occupied a low-gradient coastal plain. Distinct dinosaur clades are found in these environments. Palynological data are consistent with the inference of a tidal flat of a low-gradient coastal plain under dry and hot climate inhabited by the trackmakers.
