Also known as Winton
Where: Queensland, Australia (22.3° S, 143.1° E: paleocoordinates 51.8° S, 134.1° E)
• coordinate based on nearby landmark
• small collection-level geographic resolution
When: Winton Formation, Cenomanian to Cenomanian (100.5 - 89.3 Ma)
• Tucker et al. 2013 and Tucker et al. 2016 detrital zircon analysis suggest a maximum depositional age of 94–92Ma for the Winton Formation. The underlying upper Mackunda Formation had a maximum depositional age of 104–102Ma, suggesting that the base of the Winton Formation could be no older than Latest Albian.
• bed-level stratigraphic resolution
Environment/lithology: "floodplain"; concretionary siltstone
Size class: macrofossils
Preservation: concretion
