The Lourinhã Formation (Portuguese pronunciation: [loɾiˈɲɐ̃]) is a fossil rich geological formation in western Portugal, named for the municipality of Lourinhã. The formation is mostly Late Jurassic in age (Kimmeridgian/Tithonian), with the top of the formation extending into the earliest Cretaceous (Berriasian). It is notable for containing a fauna especially similar to that of the Morrison Formation in the United States and a lesser extent to the Tendaguru Formation in Tanzania. There are also similarities to the nearby Villar del Arzobispo Formation. The stratigraphy of the formation and the basin in general is complex and controversial, with the constituent member beds belonging to the formation varying between different authors.

  • La Formación Lourinhã es una formación geológica del oeste de Portugal, nombrada por la municipalidad de Lourinhã, de la cual se ha extraído una amplia colección de fósiles. Esta formación data del Jurásico Superior (épocas del Kimmeridgiense al Titoniense) y es notable por tener una fauna similar a la de la Formación Morrison en Estados Unidos y los lechos de Tendaguru en Tanzania. Aparte de los huesos fosilizados, la Formación Lourinhã es bien conocida por sus huellas fósiles (icnitas)​ y huevos fosilizados de dinosaurios.​ Las subdivisiones geológicas de la formación son el y la .​ (es)
  • La formation de Lourinhã est une formation géologique de la région de Lisbonne dans l'ouest du Portugal, et portant le nom de la municipalité de Lourinhã où elle est située. Elle est subdivisée en deux parties : le secteur de Amoreira-Porto-Novo et l'unité Sobral. La formation date du Jurassique supérieur (Kimméridgien/Tithonien) et se caractérise par la présence d'une faune fossile semblable à celle de la Formation de Morrison aux États-Unis et de Tendaguru en Tanzanie.

Besides the fossil bones, Lourinhã Formation is well known for the fossil tracks and fossilized dinosaur eggs. The Lourinhã Formation includes several lithostratigraphic units, such as Praia da Amoreira-Porto Novo Members and Praia Azul Member and the Assenta Member. (en)
  • Formação Lourinhã é uma formação geológica localizado no oeste de Portugal, nominada em homenagem ao concelho de Lourinhã. A formação é da idade do Jurássico Superior, e tem notável semelhança com a formação Morrison nos Estados Unidos da América e com as camadas de Tendaguru na Tanzânia. Além de abundante fauna fóssil sobretudo de dinossauros comprovada pela ocorrência de ossos, a Formação Lourinhã também tem numerosas pegadas. (pt)
