The Myrtle Group is a geologic formation in Oregon. It preserves fossils dating back to the Cretaceous period.
Protosphargis is an extinct genus of sea turtle from the Upper Cretaceous of Italy. It was first named by Capellini in 1884.
Neopholidophoropsis is an extinct genus of prehistoric ray-finned fish that lived during the Aptian stage of the Early Cretaceous epoch.
Toxolophosaurus was a sphenodont from the Early Cretaceous-age Kootenai Formation of Montana.
The Potomac Group is a geologic group in Delaware, Maryland, New Jersey, and Virginia. It preserves fossils dating back to the Cretaceous period. An indeterminate tyrannosauroid and Priconodon crassus, a nodosaurid, are known from indeterminate sediments belonging to the Potomac Group. The Potomac Group was initially believed to have been Late Jurassic in age by Othniel Charles Marsh but later studies, such as Clark (1897), have found that the Potomac Group is in fact Early-Late Cretaceous (Aptian-Turonian) in age.
The Tuscaloosa Formation is a geologic formation in Alabama. It preserves fossils dating back to the Cretaceous period.
The Navarro Group is a geologic group in Arkansas, Texas and Coahuila, Mexico. It preserves fossils dating back to the Cretaceous period.
The Coleraine Formation is a geologic formation in Minnesota. It preserves fossils dating back to the Cretaceous period.
The Montana Group is a geologic group in South Dakota. It preserves fossils dating back to the Cretaceous period.
The Skull Creek Shale is a geologic formation in Nebraska. It preserves fossils dating back to the Cretaceous period.
The Del Rio Formation is a geologic formation in Texas. It preserves fossils dating back to the Cretaceous period.
The Escondido Formation is a geologic formation in Texas and Coahuila, Mexico. It preserves fossils dating back to the Late Cretaceous period.
The Kemp Clay is a geologic formation in Texas. It preserves fossils dating back to the Cretaceous period.
The Edwards Group is a geologic group in Texas. It preserves fossils dating back to the Cretaceous period.
The Washita Group is a geologic group in Texas. It preserves fossils dating back to the Cretaceous period.
The Benton Shale is a geologic formation in Montana, Wyoming, North Dakota, South Dakota, Colorado, Kansas, and Nebraska. It preserves fossils dating to the Cretaceous Period. The term Benton Limestone has also been used to refer to the chalky portions of the strata, especially the upper beds of the strata presently classified as Greenhorn Limestone. The Benton classification is obsolete in some regions, having been replaced by the ascending sequence Graneros Shale, Greenhorn Limestone, and Carlile Shale.
The Shell Creek Shale is a geologic formation in Montana. It preserves fossils dating back to the Cretaceous period.
The Aspen Shale is a geologic formation in Wyoming. It preserves fossils dating back to the Cretaceous period.
The Days Creek Formation is a geologic formation in Oregon. It preserves fossils dating back to the Cretaceous period.
The Durlston Formation is a geologic formation in England. Particularly in the Isle of Purbeck. It preserves fossils dating back to the Berriasian stage of the Lower Cretaceous.
Anatolemys is an extinct turtle genus in the family Macrobaenidae. Two species are known, both of which lived in the Late Cretaceous. Fossils were discovered in the Yalovach Formation of Tajikistan, the Kulbikin Member and Khodzhakul and Bissekty Formations of Uzbekistan and the Bostobe Formation of Kazakhstan.
