The Dashuigou Formation (simplified Chinese: 大水沟组; traditional Chinese: 大水溝組; pinyin: Dàshuǐgōu Zǔ) is a geological formation in Inner Mongolia, north China, whose strata date back to the Early Cretaceous period.
The hadrosauroid Probactrosaurus has been reported from this formation,[1] although it actually derives from the Miaogou Formation, which has outcrops nearby.[2]
