Where: British Columbia, Canada (49.5° N, 121.9° W: paleocoordinates 42.6° N, 63.4° W)

• coordinate stated in text

• outcrop-level geographic resolution

When: Mysterious Creek Formation, Early/Lower Callovian (164.7 - 161.2 Ma)

• Early Callovian based on the ammonites (Fauna B8 of Callomon, 1984). The ammonites were found near the base of the section (C-118557) and the trigonids higher up (C-149639, C-149640). The lower part of section 1 is roughly equivalent to localities 17 and 17A.
