Yixian
Description
Source: Wikipédia
La formation de Yixian est une formation géologique d'âge Crétacé inférieur qui affleure dans la province de Liaoning (et en particulier dans la région de la ville-préfecture de Jinzhou), située dans l'est de la Chine.
Elle est célèbre pour ses fossiles, souvent très bien conservés, en particulier ceux d'oiseaux primitifs et de dinosaures théropodes. C'est la principale formation géologique ayant enregistré, grâce à ses fossiles, le réputé biote de Jehol.
