Ornithichnites Trace fossil classification Ichnoorder: Pelycosauriipedii Ichnoclass: Mammalipida Ichnogenus: †Ornithichnites Ornithichnites is an ichnotaxon of mammal footprint. The name was originally used by Edward Hitchcock as a higher group name rather than a specific ichnogenera, and thus the name does not have priority over specific ichnogenera names even if they were first identified as Ornithichnites.[1]
