Located in South Dakota, the name of the formation is derived from the Lakota Native American tribe. There are two units of the Lakota Formation, the Chilson Member (upper Berriasian to Valanginian) and the underlying Fuson Member (upper Valanginian to early Barremian). A Berriasian-Valanginian age for the Chilson Member has been extrapolated by means of ostracods and charophytes.[1] Vertebrate paleofaunaArchosaurs
