Where: France (44.3° N, 3.3° E: paleocoordinates 33.0° N, 14.7° E)
• coordinate based on political unit
• local area-level geographic resolution
When: Toarcian (182.7 - 174.1 Ma)
• formation-level stratigraphic resolution
Environment/lithology: open shallow subtidal; lithified marl
• Mid to lower shelf settings. Dark-gray fine-grained sediment point to high rates of sedimentation, high turbidity, intermittently lowered oygen values and soft to soupy substrate conditions.
• Argillaceous-marly sediments. Fossils were collected from marls.
Size class: macrofossils
