This is a list of stratigraphic units from which dinosaur body fossils have been recovered. Although Dinosauria is a clade which includes modern birds, this article covers only Mesozoic stratigraphic units. Units listed are all either formation rank or higher (e.g. group).

This list of stratigraphic units with indeterminate dinosaur fossils includes stratigraphic units of formation rank or higher that have produced dinosaur body fossils, although none of these remains have been referred to a specific genus in the scientific literature.
There have been some discoveries of unusually well-preserved fossil dinosaur specimens which bear remnants of tissues and bodily structures.Organic tissue was previously thought to decay too quickly to enter the fossil record, unlike more mineralised bones and teeth, however, research now suggests the potential for the long-term preservation of original soft tissues over geological time, [1 ...
This is a list of stratigraphic units dinosaur trace fossils have been recovered from. Although Dinosauria is a clade which includes the descendant taxon Aves (modern birds), this article covers only stratigraphic units containing Mesozoic forms. Units listed are all either formation rank or higher (e.g. group).

This list of fossil sites is a worldwide list of localities known well for the presence of fossils. Some entries in this list are notable for a single, unique find, while others are notable for the large number of fossils found there.
A death pose, or opisthotonic posture, is a common posture seen in articulated dinosaur and bird fossils where the spine is strongly curved upwards (hyperextended). [45] Different possible causes are debated, and include opisthotonus (death throes) [45] and the release of the Ligamentum elasticum interlaminare during decomposition. [46]
