英文摘要 | This work aimed to investigate the ichnofossiliferous sites in Nioaque and surrounding region, Mato Grosso do Sul state, Brazil, analyzing their paleontological, stratigraphic and paleoenvironmental context, because dinosaur tracks were found in an area previously mapped as Permo-Carboniferous age. Some sedimentary facies previously assigned to the glacial Aquidauana Formation were herein reinterpreted as part of the basal section of the Botucatu Formation (Late Jurassic/Early Cretaceous) and include floodplain and residual channel deposits, possibly representing the lower half of this formation's sequence in the studied area. The ichnofossils that have been found include both isolated tracks of Theropoda and Ornithopoda, a trackway of Eubrontes isp., a vertebrate burrow and invertebrate traces (Palaeophycus) possibly related to the Entradichnus ichnofacies. Sedimentological interpretation suggests the existence of a river system just before the deposition of the typical Botucatu eolian facies in this region. This is the first documented record of fluvial deposits transitionally to the traditional eolian Botucatu Formation. Noteworthy, the dinosaur tracks have played a key role for the interpretation of these rocks as Botucatu Formation and for better understanding the whole system due to the impossible Paleozoic age (dinosaur tracks). |
