Reuchenette Formation


The Reuchenette Formation is a Jurassic geologic formation in Switzerland. It is Kimmeridgian in age and predominantly consists of well stratified limestone, with lithology variable both laterally and stratigraphically including wackestones, packstones and grainstones, as well as mudstone. Dinosaur remains are among the fossils that have been recovered from the formation, including the Turiasaur Amanzia greppini, alongside a theropod tooth belonging to Ceratosauria indet. Fragmentary remains of teleosaurid crocodyliformes are also known.
