Where: Serbia and Montenegro (44.5° N, 22.1° E: paleocoordinates 25.7° N, 26.9° E)

• coordinate estimated from map

• outcrop-level geographic resolution

When: Parkinsoni and Zigzag to Discus ammonoid zone, Bathonian (168.3 - 166.1 Ma)

•Detailed bed description:

•"Bed is a mixture of several varieties of ferruginous limestones formed while in plastic state:

•-dominantly fine to coarse-grained crionidal packstone and grainstone (locally containing Lenticulinae, Dentalinae, nodosariids, Spirillina sp., and Campanulina carpathica Misik;)

•-grainstone with a greater or smaller amount of limonitized grains and nodules (algal peastone)

•-subordinate packstone and fine-sandy packstone with pelagic bivalves and crinoid detritus"

Size classes: macrofossils, mesofossils
