Also known as Pulu Balang, E. Borneo
Where: Borneo, Indonesia (1.1° S, 116.7° E)
• Paleocoordinates: 1.5° S, 118.2° E (Wright 2013)
• coordinate estimated from map
• outcrop-level geographic resolution
When: Pulubalang Group, Late/Upper Miocene (11.6 - 5.3 Ma)
• Difficult to fix the age precisely, considering the stratigrahic range of the species. Cannot give the fauna a more definate position than the one which may be indicated as equal to the Javanese West Progo- or Rembang series. The locality of the Pulu Balang fauna is probably in the Pulubalang series should have an upper Miocene age.
• bed-level stratigraphic resolution
Environment/lithology: coastallithified
Size class: macrofossils
Preservation: mold/impression
