Also known as Doll, Lleida, Figuerola de Meià
Where: Cataluña, Spain (41.9° N, 0.9° E: paleocoordinates 33.9° N, 0.7° E)
• coordinate estimated from map
• outcrop-level geographic resolution
When: Conques Formation (Tremp Group), Early/Lower Maastrichtian (70.6 - 66.0 Ma)
• highest part of chron C30n, 15 m below occurrence of C29r, 18 m below Paleocene; upper part of "lower red unit"
•
•The Conques Formation is equivalent to the "lower Red Garumen" facies. The Conques Formation was previously assigned a late maastrichtian age (Sellés and Villa 2015; Villa et al. 2015) Biostratigraphy and Sr stable isotope geochemistry suggest that the La Posa and Conques Formation are entirely early Maastrichtian, lying within chron C31r (see Caus et al. 2016; Oms et al. 2016; Fondevilla et al. 2016; Fondevilla et al. 2019).
• bed-level stratigraphic resolution
Environment/lithology: terrestrial; lithology not reported
Size classes: macrofossils, mesofossils
Collected by Mercadé in 1990
• includes leaves, fish, microvertebrates
