The Yecua Formation is a geological Formation in what is now Bolivia. Studies suggest that the Yecua Formation preserves a coastal setting with humid to semiarid floodplains, shorelines and tidal as well as shallow marine environments including marshes, streams, lakes and brackish bodies of water. There may have been a connection to the Amazon Basin or the Paranaense Sea.[2]
