Prida Formation

In the Prida Formation, this member outcrops in the western Humboldt Range, while the Favret Formation, outcrops in the Augusta Mountains, where it reaches up to more than 300 metres (980 ft) thick.

Although they overlap substantially, the two formations do not share precisely the same age, the Prida unit dates from the Middle to Late Anisian, while the Favret unit dates only from the Late Anisian, between approximately 244 and 242 million years ago.

The environment preserved in the Fossil Hill contains some of the earliest marine reptile communities including Ichthyosaurs and Pistosaurs.

Other fossils from this unit include invertebrates such as ceratitid ammonoids and bivalves as well as hybodont sharks and bony fish like Saurichthyes and Birgeria.
