The Shendi Formation is a Late Cretaceous geologic formation. Indeterminate Theropod remains have been recovered from it.[1] As well as those of the dyrosaurid Hyposaurus. It consists of a lower unit of fine grained meandering channel sediments, separated by an erosive contact with overlying meandering to braided river channel sandstones.[2]
