مستخلص: The article discusses the discovery of a new early Permian tetrapod footprint assemblage in Beijing, China, known as the Mentougou Ichno-fauna. These footprints provide evidence of terrestrial tetrapods in eastern Pangea, supporting the hypothesis of an early collision between the North China Block and Pangea. The discovery also sheds light on the distribution of faunas across continents and the implications for paleoclimate and evolution during the late Paleozoic. [Extracted from the article]
