Stenichnus
Trace fossil classification Edit this classification
Genus: Stenichnus
Gilmore, 1927

Stenichnus is an ichnogenus of fossil footprints. Its toes were slender and the prints overall were about the size of tracks left by modern lizards.[1] They have been preserved in the Supai Formation. These tracks have not been studied much since Gilmore's original research.[1][2]
