Abstract
A re-examination of the problematic ichnotaxon Xishuangbanania daieuensis from the Paleogene of Yunnan Province, China, reveals that the type specimen is not a lizard trackway as inferred by C.C. Young in 1979. Instead, the specimen is interpreted as a limulid trackway. The specimen is best referred to the ichnogenus Kouphichnium and represents the first discovered limulid tracks in China.
