Grés de Silves

Grés de Silves é uma formação geológica do Triássico de Portugal, composta sobretudo por argilito e arenito avermelhados. O nome tem base na cidade de Silves, onde existe um castelo construído com o arenito designado «grés de Silves», mas a formação estende-se para o centro-norte de Portugal. O termo foi criado pelo geólogo suíço Paul Choffat.

Fósseis conhecidos na formação grés de Silves:

  • Fitossauro indet.
  • Metoposaurus algarvensis Brusatte et al., 2015[1]
