List of lagerstätten

The list of lagerstätten which are sites that are characterized by exceptional preservation of fossil organisms, regularly preserving many well preserved animals, including soft tissue remains, which are known as lagerstätte sites. The extent of Lagerstätten deposits can range from a select site or stratigraphic layer to a whole formation or group. Some sites called one Lagerstätte by one author can be called multiple by another (such as the Jehol Biota and the Yixian/Jiufotang Formations). This list attempts to note this within the text and provide the formation or stratigraphic unit a site came from.

Criteria

Sites on the list must:

  1. Be referred to as a Lagerstätte (or a short-hand, such as type preservation) within the main text of at least one scientific publication. Similar terms, such as exceptional preservation do not qualify, and
  2. The fossils must fulfill the criteria of Konservat-Lagerstätte as set within Kimmig & Julien (2024).[1] They say Konservat-Lagerstätten are characterized by exceptional preservation and at least 5% of the fossils recovered from a site must preserve either soft tissue remains, or nearly complete individuals, preferably both.

Colorado/Utah/Wyoming, US

An Eocene aged site that is noted for the fish fauna preserved. Other fossils include the crocodilians, birds, and mammals.

Solteri Lagerstätte Ypresian Trento, Italy A fossil site that is one of the oldest Cenozoic deep-sea faunas in the world with this largely being make up of fish and crustaceans. Estimates of the depth of the fauna place it between depths of 250–400 metres (820–1,310 ft), which would have the fauna within the upper mesopelagic zone. The assemblage has been suggested to largely be coeval with the more famous Monte Bolca.[448]

Monte Bolca

50-49 Ma

Verona, Italy

A fossil site with specimens of fish and other organisms that are so highly preserved that their organs are often completely intact in fossil form, and even the skin color can sometimes be determined. It is assumed that mud at the site was low in oxygen, preventing both decay and the mixing action of scavengers from harming the fossils.[445]

Messel Formation

47 Ma

Hessen, Germany

This site has significant geological and scientific importance. Over 1000 species of plants and animals have been found at the site. After almost becoming a landfill, strong local resistance eventually stopped these plans and the Messel Pit was declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site on 9 December 1995. Significant scientific discoveries about the early evolution of mammals and birds are still being made at the Messel Pit, and the site has increasingly become a tourist site as well.

Geiseltal[449] 48.5–41 Ma[450] Saxony-Anhalt, Germany A site that has produced over 50,000 fossil vertebrates, as well as a diverse array of insects and plants within a lacustrine ecosystem.

The fossiliferous limestone system is located near the Gregory River in the north-west of Queensland, an environment that was once a very wet rainforest that became more arid as the Gondwanan land masses separated and the Australian continent moved north.

Their preservation is exquisite; fresh leaves are unfossilized, and sometimes retain their fall colors before rapidly oxidizing in air. It has been reported that scientists have managed to isolate small amounts of ancient DNA from fossil leaves from this site. However, other scientists are skeptical of the validity of this reported occurrence of Miocene DNA.

The Mammoth Site 26 Ka South Dakota, US The facility encloses a prehistoric sinkhole that formed and was slowly filled with sediments during the Pleistocene era. As of 2016, the remains of 61 mammoths, including 58 North American Columbian and 3 woolly mammoths had been recovered. Mammoth bones were found at the site in 1974, and a museum and building enclosing the site were established.
Rancho La Brea Tar Pits 40–12 Ka California, US A group of tar pits where natural asphalt (also called asphaltum, bitumen, or pitch; brea in Spanish) has seeped up from the ground for tens of thousands of years. Over many centuries, the bones of trapped animals have been preserved. Among the prehistoric species associated with the La Brea Tar Pits are Pleistocene mammoths, dire wolves, short-faced bears, American lions, ground sloths, and, the state fossil of California, the saber-toothed cat (Smilodon fatalis).
Waco Mammoth National Monument 65–51 Ka Texas, US A paleontological site and museum in Waco, Texas, United States where fossils of 24 Columbian mammoths (Mammuthus columbi) and other mammals from the Pleistocene Epoch have been uncovered. The site is the largest known concentration of mammoths dying from a (possibly) reoccurring event, which is believed to have been a flash flood.
