Abstract

A new small site, not always outcropping, with large and giant theropod tracks in the Upper Jurassic of the Central High Atlas of Morocco is described. The ichnites and the typology of the rocks of the site are similar to those of the Iouaridène sites with which there is no cartographic continuity. The particular characters of the tracks and trackways are analyzed and highlighted and a hypothesis of distribution of this type of dinosaurs is pointed out.
