Abstract
“Aguilar del Rio Alhama” Formation, defined in this location and Berriasian (Lower Cretaceous) age, is one of the stratigraphic units of the Cameros Basin, with less dinosaur footprints content. Recently, at the boundary between Soria and La Rioja, one of us (R.S.) found two ichnological sites with dinosaur tracks near Cigudosa town. In the survey of the area carried by another of the authors of this paper (C.P.) there were found two further ones. One of them containing footprints of pterosaurs. The work consist in a graphic representation is to scaled of all the detected footprints, ichnological analysis of individual prints, of each trackways and finally of the whole. They have also been compared with similar footprints, especially from Cameros Basin. The trackways directions and its possible relationship with the environment have been examined.
