VERIFY:period_end_mya: stored=156 suggested=158.7 confidence=medium — The upper Shishugou Formation at Wucaiwan, the horizon yielding Yinlong downsi, is radiometrically dated to between 161.2 ± 0.2 Ma and 158.7 ± 0.3 Ma, so the stored end age of 156 Ma extends beyond the dated section and into the Kimmeridgian, conflicting with the stored Oxfordian stage. The stored start age of 161 Ma matches the literature.
