Reconstruction of a fossil insect from the Cretaceous of Brazil. (exhibit signage, Orton Geology Museum, Ohio State University, Columbus, Ohio, USA) From exhibit signage: The Crato Formation formed in shallow lakes in northeastern Brazil 110 million years ago (Early Cretaceous). The Crato is sometimes considered part of the Santana Formation, which is famous for concretions containing fossils of fish as well as plants, crocodiles, turtles, pterosaurs, and dinosaurs. The preservation is so good that some fish even have gut contents and muscle fibers preserved.
