Where: England, United Kingdom (50.6° N, 1.9° W: paleocoordinates 41.5° N, 7.9° E)

• coordinate based on nearby landmark

• small collection-level geographic resolution

When: Peveril Point Member (Durlston Formation), Late/Upper Berriasian (145.0 - 140.2 Ma)

• "almost certainly" from an upper Purbeck horizon

•

•Durlston Formation is likely upper Berriasian in age based on magnetostratigraphy (Ogg et al. 1994; Ogg et al. 2008) and correlates to other upper Berriasian assemblages in Europe (e.g. Wimbledon and Hunt 1993).
