Abstract
The Apulian marine carbonate Platform, an unusual environment for terrestrial animals, has revealed a diverse ichnological record, especially for dinosaurs. Members of most higher taxa are present, including sauropods, theropods, ankylosaurs and ornithopods. Recently, a small outcrop of Aptian age referred to the Calcare di Bari near Bisceglie (Bari) has yielded a new quadrupedal trackway that we attribute to Ankylosauria. This new find enhances the record of Cretaceous ankylosaur footprints from the Apulian carbonate Platform, previously known from another site near Bisceglie (early Aptian), from Borgo Celano (late Hauterivian–early Barremian), and from Altamura (late Coniacian–early Santonian).
