The Tsagaantsav Svita is an Early Cretaceous (Berriasian to Valanginian) geologic formation. Indeterminate sauropod and psittacosaurid remains have been recovered from the formation.[1] Remains of the pterosaur Noripterus, which were originally given their own genus, "Phobetor" have also been recovered from it.[2][3]
