The Chinle Formation is an Upper Triassic continental geologic formation in the western United States which has yielded fossils of many archosaurs: a group of vertebrates that includes crocodiles, pterosaurs, dinosaurs (including birds), and other extinct relatives.

Phytosaurs

S. gregorii
  • Arizona
  • Sonsela
  • Blue Mesa
  • Mesa Redondo

Leptosuchus[1]L. crosbiensis[1]
  • Arizona[1]
  • Sonsela[1]
  • Blue Mesa[1]
  • Mesa Redondo[1]
Smilosuchus[2]S. adamanensis[1]

Previously referred to Leptosuchus, actually referable to Smilosuchus.[13]

Machaeroprosopus[5]M. buceros[5]

  • Petrified Forest[5]
  • Sonsela[5]
Pravusuchus[6]P. hortus

Long and Murray considered Redondasaurus to be synonymous with Pseudopalatus,[2] but other workers have found in to be distinct.[8]

Suchians

Aetosaurs

{{paleobiota-key-compact}}Acaenasuchus[9]A. geoffreyi[9]
  • Arizona[9]
  • Sonsela[9]
  • Blue Mesa[9]
  • Mesa Redondo[9]

Known from a handful of isolated osteoderms.[9]

A controversial taxon that some paleontologists have considered to be juvenile Desmatosuchus haplocerus scutes.[9] However, Randall Irmis notes that the Acaenasuchus scutes have unique characters.[9] Some earlier workers attributed these characters to the allegedly young age of the specimens.[9] However, Irmis notes that the ontogenetic stage of the specimens has not been confirmed and that in aetosaur genera with known juvenile remains, there are no appreciable physical differences between the younger and older individuals.[9] Irmis suggested that future researchers treat Acaenasuchus as its own taxon until contrary evidence surfaces.[9]

D. smalli[12]
  • Arizona[12]
  • Petrified Forest[12]
RioarribasuchusR. chamaensis
  • Arizona[13]
  • New Mexico[13]
  • Petrified Forest[13]

Although originally referred to Desmatosuchus, Randall Irmis considers it to be a new taxon closely related to Paratypothorax based on a phylogenetic analysis performed on the remains by Parker in 2003.[13]

Indeterminate[15]

  • Arizona[15]
  • Sonsela[15]

Indeterminate[18]

  • Arizona[18]
  • Sonsela[18]

A partial skeleton from Petrified Forest National Park is not only the uppermost occurrence of Stagonolepis in the park, but may represent a new species as well.[18]

Typothorax[20]T. coccinarum[20]
  • Arizona[20]
  • Owl Rock[20]
  • Petrified Forest[20]
  • Sonsela[20]

Common in the Owl Rock and Petrified Forest Members.[20]

Almost all of the known Chinlean Typothorax fossils are isolated whole or fragmentary osteoderms.[20]

  • Arizona[17]

Indeterminate ceratosaurian remains have been recovered from the Bull Canyon Formation in New Mexico.[32] Theropod tracks have been found in Utah and New Mexico recovered from the Redonda, Sloan Canyon, and Sheep Pen Sandstone formations.[32] Indeterminate theropod remains are stratigraphically present in the Santa Rosa, Petrified Forest, Bluewater Creek, Rock Point, and Garita Creek formations. They are geographically present in New Mexico.[32] Indeterminate herrerasaurid remains stratigraphically present in the Bull Canyon Formation and geographically present in New Mexico.[32]
