The Linha São Luiz Geosite is one of the most remarkable outcrops from the central region of Rio Grande do Sul state, southern Brazil. With more than 20 meters of vertical exposure, the locality preserves records of distinct sedimentary episodes, and one of the richest fossil assemblages known in southern Brazil. After a quarter of a century from the first expeditions to the site, the Linha São Luiz still yields new discoveries, registering exquisitely preserved fossils from micro and macrovertebrates, invertebrates, and plants, as well as trace fossils generated by these groups. In this contribution, we assembled representatives from distinct fields of paleontological study to provide a summary of the fossil assemblage from this site. We also briefly discuss the history of research and report geoconservation strategies, which are being implemented at the locality, in order to preserve this important window to the Brazilian Mesozoic. |
