Bückeberg Formation

The Bückeberg Formation is a geologic formation and Lagerstätte[1] in Germany. It preserves fossils dating back to the Berriasian of the Cretaceous period.[2] The Bückeberg Formation has previously been considered to constitute the "German Wealden" in reference to its similarity to the Wealden Group in the United Kingdom.[3] More recently it has been considered a group, containing the Isterberg and Deister Formations. The plesiosaur Brancasaurus,[4] an indeterminate ankylosaur referred to Hylaeosaurus,[5] the turtle Dorsetochelys are known from the formation.
