The Isalo III Formation is a geological formation in Madagascar, off the eastern coast of Africa. It dates back to the Middle Jurassic. The use of the term "Isalo III" is somewhat controversial as the two prior units and II are Triassic cross-bedded sandstone units that form a continuous depositional sequence, while the "Isalo III" sandstones are not part of the same depositional sequence, and were deposited considerably later. and are perhaps better treated as part of several separate formations. It is traditionally divided into two subunits the lower, Bajocian aged Isalo IIIa unit also known as the Beronono Formation and the upper, Bathonian aged Isalo IIIb unit also known as the Sakaraha Formation or Sakahara Formation. The Sakaraha Formation consists of sandstones, marls and carbonate

  • La Formació geològica Isalo III, en anglès: Isalo III Formation és una formació geològica que es troba a Madagascar. Data des del subperíode Bathonià del Juràssic mitjà, en l'era del Mesozoic. (ca)
  • La formación Isalo III es una formación geológica de Madagascar, en la costa oriental de África. Data de un período anterior al Jurásico Medio.​ Está dividida en dos subunidades; la inferior o bajociense, es llamada Isalo IIIa y es también conocida como formación Beronono. La superior o bathoniense, llamada Isalo IIIb y también conocida como formación Sakaraha.​ La formación comprende claystones, areniscas y margas depositadas en un medio sedimentario terrestre. Está limitada al noroeste y en al sureste del país y ha proporcionado una gran variedad de fósiles. (es)

The Sakaraha Formation consists of sandstones, marls and carbonates and represents a coastal plain environment, and is laterally equivalent to the predominantly carbonate Bemaraha Formation, which represents a coastal barrier lagoon complex. The formation is found in the northwest and in the southeast of the country and has provided a variety of fossils. (en)
