The Jizera Formation is a geologic unit of Late Cretaceous (Turonian) age, located in the Czech Republic. It is a unit of the Bohemian Cretaceous Basin.[1][2] It consists of fluvial to shallow marine sediments[1] and pterosaur fossils are among the remains found in the Jizera Formation. The type locality of the Jizera Formation is a quarry in Zářecká Lhota.[3][4]
