The Duntulm sauropod tracksite & environmental partitioning in Middle Jurassic dinosaurs on the Isle of Skye, Scotland onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/... #PapersinPalaeontology @datadryad.bsky.social
On the left: aerial photo of Section 2 of the Duntulm tracksite, with a line drawing below, highlighting Trackway 1 (line below, closer to vertical) and Trackway 2 (line above, closer to horizontal). Scale bar between the two images is 2 m.
Lower right: aerial photo and line drawing of Trackway 1 (scale bar at lower right is 1 m).
Upper right: photograph and line drawing of a manus-pes pair of footprints, illustrating the difference in size observed in all tracks. The manus at the top (DUNT_26) is smaller than the pes (DUNT_27). Scale bar to lower right of drawing is 5 cm.

There are smaller photographs of two fossil diving beetles overlapping this image: top right is Liadytiscus latus (in a brown matrix) and bottom left is Sinoporus lineatus (in a yellow matrix).
Each photograph has a 1 mm scale bar in the lower right corner.
Plot at bottom right shows the origination rate of new genera on the vertical axis and geological time on the horizontal axis.
