Where: Greece (40.2° N, 21.0° E: paleocoordinates 38.1° N, 19.2° E)

• coordinate stated in text

• outcrop-level geographic resolution

When: Eptachorion Formation, Chattian (28.1 - 23.0 Ma)

• STRATIGRAPHIC RELATIONS: Unknown lithostratigraphic relations. From Eptachorion Fm. Details presumably given by Wielandt-Schuster et al. (2004). THICKNESS: Unknown thickness. AGE: Eptachorion Fm is Late Rupelian to Late Chattian based on planktonic foraminfera, corresponding to biozones P20-P21 (Barbieri 1992) and to NP 24 (Zygojanni and Müller, 1982) based on nannoplankton. Placed in Chattian following other regional assemblages containing similar fauna. STRATIGRAPHIC POSITION: From unknown position within unit.
