Reinosilla, Palencia, Re-B (Jurassic of Spain)

Where: Spain (42.9° N, 4.2° W: paleocoordinates 30.9° N, 3.9° E)

• coordinate based on nearby landmark

• small collection-level geographic resolution

When: Solis Member (Gijon Formation), Planorbis (201.3 - 196.5 Ma)

• Likely early Hettangian by stratigraphic position immediately above inferred T-J boundary and by inference from biostratigraphic constraints at Fabares section.

• bed-level stratigraphic resolution

Environment/lithology: shallow subtidal; lithified limestone

• The carbonates of the Solís Member are organized in shallowing-upward sequences composed of a lower unit of subtidal carbonates (locally bioturbated) that occasionally contain bivalve-rich shell layers.

Size class: macrofossils

Preservation: mold/impression

Collection methods: Material housed at the University of Valencia Geology Museum (MGUV), with the following collection numbers: MGUV 3705 to 3752 and 4359 to 4500.
