Where: Ukraine (48.5° N, 35.0° E: paleocoordinates 48.0° N, 30.5° E)
• coordinate based on nearby landmark
• local area-level geographic resolution
When: NP19-NP20 nannofossil zone, Mandrikovka Formation, Priabonian (38.0 - 33.9 Ma)
• Obukhovian; This circumstance proves that typical Mandrikovka sands underlie rather than pass laterally into typical Obukhovian beds, i.e., they are slightly more ancient.
• group of beds-level stratigraphic resolution
Environment/lithology: perireef or subreef; poorly lithified, gray, green sandstone and glauconitic, gray, green, silty sandstone
•
•... usually light grayish–yellowish nonglauconitic, more or less clayey, detrital sands rich in diverse well-preserved faunal remains
Size class: macrofossils
