Where: Queensland, Australia (19.1° S, 138.7° E: paleocoordinates 34.0° S, 133.4° E)
• coordinate based on nearby landmark
• small collection-level geographic resolution
When: Carl Creek Limestone Formation, Late/Upper Oligocene (28.4 - 23.0 Ma)
• Megirian et al. 2010: "The Carl Creek Limestone produces distinctly Wipajirian and distinctly Camfieldian assemblages plus a suite of species that apparently ranged locally across the Wipajirian/Camfieldian boundary, and then five site assemblages (‘‘RIV Keith’s Chocky Block,’’ ‘‘RIV Henk’s Hollow,’’ ‘‘RIV Gag,’’ ‘‘RIV Jim’s Carousel,’’ ‘‘RIV Sticky Beak’’) containing incongruous associations of Camfieldian and Wipajirian species."
•"The Carl Creek Limestone produces distinctly Wipajirian and distinctly Camfieldian assemblages plus a suite of species that apparently ranged locally across the Wipajirian/Camfieldian boundary" (Wipajirian–Camfieldian estimated to span ~24.9–12 Ma).
