description The Paleontological Site of Peirópolis, in the Bauru Group, Bauru Basin, is one of the best fossiliferous site of continental Upper Cretaceous in Brazil. It is located at the Triângulo Mineiro regin, 20Km east of the headquarters of the municipality of Uberaba, Minas Gerais state. In Peirópolis neighborhoods there are expositions of sedimentary rocks of Marília (Ponte Alta and Serra da Galga members) and Uberaba formations of the Bauru Group, where have been recorded fossils of invertebrates and vertebrates. Llewellyn Ivor Price was the first to carry out field trips and study the fossils of Peirópolis between 1947 and 1974. In 1992, the Centro de Pesquisas Paleontológicas Llewellyn Ivon Price (CPPLIP) and Museu dos Dinossauros were created, with two main goals: to house the fossils collected in Peirópolis and offer support to paleontological and geological research undertaken in the area. The Paleontological Site of Perirópolis is characterized by three fossiliferous localities named as "Point 1, 2 and 3" - where well-preserved fossils were collected. Large quantity of this cretaceous paleofauna is haused at the CPPLIP, reaching.
