VERIFY:geological_stage: stored=sinemurian suggested=pliensbachian confidence=medium — Current summaries of the literature assign the fossil-bearing Hanson Formation horizon to the Pliensbachian rather than the Sinemurian, with the taxon listed as Early Jurassic (Pliensbachian) and excavated from the Pliensbachian-aged Hanson Formation (formerly the upper Falla Formation). The older 'Sinemurian to Pliensbachian' wording has been superseded by a Pliensbachian assignment in recent sources.
