Coli Toro Member
The Coli Toro Member is a Campanian geologic member in Argentina. Dinosaur remains are among the fossils that have been recovered from the formation, although none have yet been referred to a specific genus. The sandstones of the formation were deposited in a lacustrine environment.
The formation in later publications has been reassigned as the Coli Toro Member at the basal levels of the Los Alamitos Formation, containing fossil remains of Sulcusuchus erraini. The formation partly overlies the Angostura Colorada Formation.
