Keuper
The Keuper is a lithostratigraphic unit (a sequence of rock strata) in the subsurface of large parts of west and central Europe.
Lithostratigraphy
Lithostratigraphy is a sub-discipline of stratigraphy, the geological science associated with the study of strata or rock layers.

Series (stratigraphy)
Series are subdivisions of rock layers based on the age of the rock and formally defined by international conventions of the geological timescale.

South German Jurassic
The term South German Jurassic (Süddeutscher Jura) in earth history is used to refer to a lithostratigraphic rock unit at the hierarchical level of a supergroup. Black Jurassic and South German Jurassic are Jurassic System of Europe.
