The La Quinta Formation is a Jurassic geologic formation which crops out in the Cordillera de Mérida and Serranía del Perijá of western Venezuela and northeastern Colombia. The formation is also present in the subsurface of the Cesar-Ranchería and Maracaibo Basins. At its type locality near La Grita, Táchira, it consists of a basal dacitic tuff followed by interlayered sandstones, tuffs, siltstones and rare limestones. Dinosaur remains including Laquintasaura, Tachiraptor, and Perijasaurus are among the fossils that have been recovered from the formation.

dbo:abstract
  • La formación la quinta es un yacimiento fósil del periodo jurásico inferior hace aproximadamente 224 y 196 millones de años en el pasado.​Este yacimiento preserva una de las mayores diversidades fósiles más grandes de Sudamérica, se destaca de las demás formaciones geológicas por tener fósiles enterrados a más de un metro debajo del suelo.​ (es)

Dinosaur remains including Laquintasaura, Tachiraptor, and Perijasaurus are among the fossils that have been recovered from the formation. U–Pb zircon analysis demonstrates that the formation dates to 200.91+0.55 Ma at its base and a maximum age of 174.8 Ma. (en)
