Monkonosaurus is a dubious genus of herbivorous stegosaurian dinosaur from the Late Jurassic/Early Cretaceous-aged Loe-ein Formation of Tibet. Some sources place it as alive during the Oxfordian - Albian stages, around 163 - 100 million years ago, although Monkonosaurus was probably only alive during the Late Jurassic, making it among the earliest known stegosaurs along with Chungkingosaurus and Bashanosaurus.
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 Marnes de Bleville is a geological formation in France. It dates back to the Late Jurassic.
The Sables et Grès à Trigonia gibbosa is a geological formation in northwestern France. It dates back to the Late Jurassic. It is named after Trigonia gibbosa, which can be found in abundance in the formation.
The Suining Formation is a geological formation in China whose strata date back to the Early Cretaceous. Dinosaur remains are among the fossils that have been recovered from the formation. A 2019 paper shows zircon dating of the Suining Formation with a much younger age for the classically thought of Late Jurassic formation; the average age of the dating being roughly 114 myo or late upper Aptian. However, these results were subsequently challenged, with suggestions that the age of the zircons was affected by metamorphism, and that the zircons clustering around 145 Ma near the Jurassic Cretaceous boundary are closer to the correct date.
The Penglaizhen Formation, is a geological formation in Sichuan, China. It was formerly thought to be Late Jurassic in age. However, the underlying Suining Formation has been dated to the Mid Cretaceous, so the formation must be this age or later However a subsequent study suggested that the dates for the formation had been altered by geologic processes, and there dating the Suining Formation to the around the Jurassic Cretaceous boundary about 145 Ma, which means that Penglaizhen Formation is likely Early Cretaceous in age. Dinosaur remains are among the fossils that have been recovered from the formation.
The Shishugou Formation is a geological formation in Xinjiang, China.
The Kalaza Formation is a geological formation in Xinjiang, China whose strata date back to the Late Jurassic. There is some confusion with the stratigraphy of this unit, as the term is used for sediments of equivalent age in both the Junggar Basin and the Turpan Basin. Dinosaur remains are among the fossils that have been recovered from formation.
The Houcheng Formation is a geological formation in Hebei, China whose strata date back to the Upper Middle Jurassic. The lithology primarily consists of sandstone and conglomerate deposited in fluvial, alluvial fan and fan delta conditions, with interbeds of volcanic rocks. Dinosaur remains are among the fossils that have been recovered from the formation.
The Yuliangze Formation, or Yuliangzi Formation, is a geological formation in Heilongjiang, China whose strata date back to the early-middle Maastrichtian. Dinosaur remains are among the fossils that have been recovered from the formation.
The Xiaoyan Formation is a geological formation in Anhui, China whose strata date back to the Late Cretaceous. Dinosaur remains are among the fossils that have been recovered from the formation. It overlies the older Qiyunshan Formation which it forms the Huangshan Basin with, and was deposited between the Campanian and Maastrichtian stages.
The Kuangyuan Series is a Late Jurassic (Oxfordian-?Tithonian) geologic formation in Sichuan (Szechuan), China. Dinosaur remains are among the fossils that have been recovered from the formation.
The Les Sables de Glos Formation is a sandy Jurassic-age geologic formation in France. Dinosaur remains are among the fossils that have been recovered from the formation, although none have yet been referred to a specific genus.
The Cerro Castillo Formation is a Jurassic geologic formation in Argentina. Dinosaur remains diagnostic to the genus level are among the fossils that have been recovered from the formation.
The Toutunhe Formation is a Late Jurassic geological formation in China, specifically dating to the Oxfordian and Kimmeridgian stages. Dinosaur remains diagnostic to the genus level are among the fossils that have been recovered from the formation. The lower portion of the formation consists of grey to reddish mudstone with medium to coarse grained cross bedded sandstone, while the upper portion consists primarily of brown-red-purple mudstone, interbedded with fine to medium grained laminated sandstone.
The Wagad Formation is a Mesozoic Late Jurassic geologic formation in India. Fossilised sauropod and ornithopod tracks have been reported from the formation.
The Tochikubo Formation is a Jurassic geologic formation in northern Honshu, Japan, dating to the Oxfordian stage of the Late Jurassic. Fossil ornithopod tracks have been reported from the formation. As well as the Bennettitalean Kimuriella.
The Zhenzhuchong Formation is an Early Jurassic geologic formation in China. Plesiosaur remains are among the fossils that have been recovered from its strata. Remains of the prosauropod Lufengosaurus huenei have been recovered from this formation As well as dinosaur footprints.
The Rutland Formation is a geologic formation in England. It preserves fossils dating back to the late Bajocian to Bathonian stages in the Jurassic period, about 169 million years ago. It is the lateral equivalent of the Sharp's Hill Formation and the Fuller's Earth Formation. The "Rutland Dinosaur" specimen of Cetiosaurus is known from the formation.
The Argiles de Châtillon is a geologic formation in France. It preserves fossils dating back to the Jurassic period. Dinosaur remains are among the fossils that have been recovered from the formation, although none have yet been referred to a specific genus.
