Lomas Coloradas Formation

The Lomas Coloradas Formation is a Mesozoic geologic formation in Mexico. Dinosaur remains are among the fossils that have been recovered from the formation, although only a few have yet been referred to a specific genus.[1] Indetermiate hadrosaur remains[2] and indetermiante sauropod remains, most likely belonging to Alamosaurus, have been unearthed here.[3]
