Where: Westfalen, Germany (51.9° N, 7.3° E: paleocoordinates 42.5° N, 8.3° E)

• coordinate based on nearby landmark

• outcrop-level geographic resolution

When: Dülmener Schichten Formation, Early/Lower Campanian (83.5 - 70.6 Ma)

• The fauna clearly comes from different fossil layers, therefore stratigraphic resolution is not possible. The fauna belongs to the granulataquadrata to lingua/quadrata zones. The presence of the upper Santonian G. granulata seems questionable, since the widespread contemporary Marsupites testudinarius is missing.

• bed-level stratigraphic resolution

Environment/lithology: marine; poorly lithified, calcareous sandstone

Size class: macrofossils

Collection methods: Repository: Geologisch-Paläontologisches Institut der Rheinischen Friedrich-Wilhelms-Universität, Bonn
