Also known as Unit V
Where: Big Horn County, Montana (45.1° N, 106.9° W: paleocoordinates 44.1° N, 64.8° W)
• coordinate based on political unit
• small collection-level geographic resolution
When: Himes Member (Cloverly Formation), Middle Albian to Middle Albian (109.0 - 93.5 Ma)
• lower unit VII

•Unit V according to Cifelli and Davis 2015

•D'Emic et al. 2019: New data reported in this study suggest that deposition of the Cloverly Formation spanned the Valanginian–Cenomanian stages (ca. 140 Ma–98 Ma), a longer time interval than the commonly cited Aptian–Albian depositional timeframe. In the mid–late Albian to early Cenomanian (ca. 109–98 Ma), sediment sourced from the east was deposited as the Himes Member and Greybull Sandstone.
• bed-level stratigraphic resolution
Environment/lithology: terrestrial; lithology not reported
