Английская Википедия:Fleming Fjord Formation
Шаблон:Infobox rockunit The Fleming Fjord Formation, alternatively called the Fleming Fjord Group is an Upper Triassic geological formation in the northeastern coast of Jameson Land, Greenland. It consists of terrestrial sediments and is known for its fossil content.
Description
It is of Norian to Rhaetian age and is subdivided into three members; at the base the Edderfugledal Member, followed by the Malmros Klint Member with the Ørsted Dal Member at the top. It was deposited in a large shallow to ephemeral lake.[1]
Paleobiota
The fauna of Fleming Fjord is diverse, including sauropodomorph dinosaurs, pterosaurs, temnospondyls, mammaliaforms, aetosaurs, and other taxa.[2] Freshwater unionid bivalves and conchostracans have been reported from the Malmros Klint Member.[3]
Fish
Lungfish, actinopterygian, and chondrichthyan teeth have been reported from the Malmros Klint Member.[3]

cf. Brachychirotherium | Ørsted Dal Member | Small quadrupedal tracks, likely produced by small or juvenile pseudosuchians[12] | ||
Eosauropus sp. | Ørsted Dal Member | Large (>40 cm per footprint) quadrupedal tracks, likely produced by an early sauropod related to Eusauropoda[13] | ||
Evazoum sp. | Ørsted Dal Member | Large (~36 cm per footprint) bipedal tracks, likely produced by a plateosaurian sauropodomorph. By far the largest prints assigned to this ichnogenus[13] | ||
