Jurassic
Jurassic One of the three
Mesozoic periods: it lasted from 208 to 145.6 Ma, following the
Triassic and preceding the
Cretaceous. The Jurassic Period is subdivided into 11
stages (
Hettangian,
Sinemurian,
Pliensbachian,
Toarcian,
Aalenian,
Bajocian,
Bathonian,
Callovian,
Oxfordian,
Kimmeridgian, and
Tithonian), with
clays, calcareous
sandstones, and
limestones being the most common rock types.
Brachiopods,
bivalves, and
ammonites are abundant fossils, along with many other invertebrate stocks.
Reptiles flourished on land and in the sea, but mammals were relatively insignificant and presumed to have been predominantly nocturnal. The first birds, including
Archaeopteryx, appeared in the Late Jurassic.
