Caririchnium is an
ichnogenus of
ornithopod
dinosaur footprint,
[1] belonging to either derived
iguanodonts or basal
hadrosauroids .
[2] It includes the species Caririchnium lotus from
Lower Cretaceous
Jiaguan Formation and C . protohadrosaurichnos from
Upper Cretaceous
Woodbine Formation .
[3]
[4] Specimens are also known from the Lower Cretaceous
