Hasle Formation

The Hasle Formation is a geologic formation on the island on Bornholm, Denmark. It is of early to late Pliensbachian age. Vertebrate fossils have been uncovered from this formation.[1][2]

Stenonyx[4]

Indeterminate

25 mm footprints referred to a non-avian Theropod.[4]

Footprints of an Small Theropod Dinosaur, probably a member of Neotheropoda, related to genera such as Tachiraptor or Dracoraptor.

Massopoda[5]

Massopoda Indeterminate

DK966, an upper part of a femur from a juvenile animal

A Massopoda Sauropodomorph. DK966 has been compared with various taxa from the lower jurassic: "Aristosaurus erectus", a young Massospondylus, various Massospondylus specimens, Lufengosaurus huenei holotype, Seitaad ruessi, Thecodontosaurus, Pantydraco, etc. DK966 can be probably a young specimen of Massopoda, related to Massospondylus, more than a Plateosaurid or an Anchisaurid. We find it related to "Hortalotarsus", "Aristosaurus" and Massospondylus more than Seitaad for example. Based on the several taxa we had compared probably presented a body similar to Pantydraco being a young specimen. The complete bone is estimated on only 6 cm, making the animal no more than 70 cm length.
