Where: Congo-Brazzaville (4.8° S, 11.8° E: paleocoordinates 19.6° S, 0.7° E)

• coordinate based on nearby landmark

• outcrop-level geographic resolution

When: Turonian (93.9 - 89.8 Ma)

• Lombard (1930) later assigned the specimens to beds in his measured section on the basis of the matrix. This bed contains an Inoceramus similar to Turonian groups, and Lima cf. iteriana which Lombard thought indicated a Cenomanian age.

• bed-level stratigraphic resolution

Environment/lithology: marine; blue sandstone

Size class: macrofossils
