Also known as Loc. 310883/1

Where: Chile (44.6° S, 74.6° W: paleocoordinates 45.6° S, 68.5° W)

• coordinate based on nearby landmark

• outcrop-level geographic resolution

When: Navidad Formation, Early/Lower Miocene (23.0 - 16.0 Ma)

• STRATIGRAPHIC RELATIONS: From the Navidad Fm, for which lithostratigraphic relationships are not discussed (in english) in text. AGE: Early-Middle Miocene in text based on macrofossil biostratigraphy. Here, tentatively assigned to Early Miocene based on more recent published age estimates. STRATIGRAPHIC POSITION: From unknown position within Navidad Fm.

• bed-level stratigraphic resolution

Environment/lithology: coastal; unlithified siliciclastic sediments

Size class: macrofossils
