The Dapuka Group is a geological formation in Asia. It dates back to the Middle Jurassic. [1]
The Middle Jurassic is the second epoch of the Jurassic Period. It lasted from about 174 to 163 million years ago. Fossil-bearing rocks from the Middle Jurassic are relatively rare, but some important formations include the Forest Marble Formation in England, the Kilmaluag Formation in Scotland, the Daohugou Beds in China, Itat Formation in Russia, and the Isalo III Formation of western Madagascar.

The Hanson Formation is a geologic formation on Mount Kirkpatrick, Antarctica. It is one of only two major dinosaur-bearing rock formations found on the continent of Antarctica to date; the other is the Santa Marta Formation from the Late Cretaceous. The formation has yielded only a handful of Mesozoic specimens so far and most of it is as yet unexcavated. Part of the Victoria Group of the Transantarctic Mountains, it is below the Prebble Formation and above the Falla Formation.
The Kota Formation is a geological formation in India. The dates for the Kora Formation are uncertain, but it dates from the Early Jurassic to Early Cretaceous, and is split into a Lower Member and Upper Member. The lower members is though to be Hettangian-Pliensbachian.
The Fengjiahe Formation is a geological formation in China. It dates back to the Early Jurassic.
The Summerville Formation is a geological formation in New Mexico, Colorado, and Utah of the Southwestern United States. It dates back to the Middle Jurassic.
The Marnes de Dives is a geological formation in Europe. It dates back to the Middle Jurassic.
The Marnes a Belemnopsis latesulcata Formation is a geological formation in Europe. It dates back to the Middle Jurassic.
The Calcaire de Caen or Caen Limestone is a geological formation in France. It dates back to the mid-Bathonian of the Jurassic. It was often quarried for building work and is referred to as Caen Stone.
The Taynton Limestone is a geological formation in the United Kingdom. It dates to the Middle Jurassic, mid-Bathonian stage.
The Inferior Oolite is a sequence of Jurassic age sedimentary rocks in Europe. It was deposited during the Middle Jurassic. The Inferior Oolite Group as more recently defined is a Jurassic lithostratigraphic group in southern and eastern England. It has been variously known in the past as the Under Oolite, the Inferior Oolite, the Inferior Oolite Series and the Redbourne Group.
The Forest Marble is a geological formation in England. Part of the Great Oolite Group, it dates to back to the late Bathonian stage of the Middle Jurassic.
The Chuanjie Formation is a geological formation in Yunnan, China. It dates back to the Middle Jurassic.
The Wucaiwan Formation is a geological formation in Asia. It dates back to the Middle Jurassic.
The Guettioua Formation is a geological formation in Morocco. It dates back to the Middle Jurassic. It largely consists of sandstone, and is of continental origin. It is the lateral equivalent of the marine El Mers Formation
The Suining Formation is a geological formation in China whose strata date back to the Late Jurassic. Dinosaur remains are among the fossils that have been recovered from the formation.
The Tuchengzi Formation is a geological formation in China whose strata spans the Tithonian to Berriasian ages. Dinosaur fossils, particularly footprints, have been found from the formation.
The Shishugou Formation is a geological formation in Xinjiang, China.
The Kalazha Formation is a geological formation in Xinjiang, China whose strata date back to the Late Jurassic. Dinosaur remains are among the fossils that have been recovered from the formation.
The Hantong Formation is a geological formation in Asia whose strata date back to the Late Jurassic. Dinosaur remains are among the fossils that have been recovered from the formation.
The Houcheng Formation/Tuchengzi Formation is a geological formation in Hebei, China whose strata date back to the Late Jurassic. Dinosaur remains are among the fossils that have been recovered from the formation.
The Balabansai Formation is a geological formation in Kazakhstan and Kyrgyzstan whose strata date back to the Bathonian and Callovian stages of the Middle Jurassic. Dinosaur remains are among the fossils that have been recovered from the formation. The lithology primarily consists of variegated sandstones, siltstones, claystones, and rare gravels and marls. Many taxa have been found in the formation, including amphibians and mammals
