Judith River Formation
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Judith River Formation is a fossil-bearing geologic formation in northern Montana, and is part of the Judith River Group. It dates to the upper Cretaceous. It is an historically important formation, explored by early American paleontologists such as Edward Drinker Cope, who named several dinosaurs from scrappy remains found here on his 1876 expedition (such as Monoclonius). Modern work has found nearly complete skeletons of the hadrosaurid Brachylophosaurus
