Where: Greenland (71.1° N, 23.3° W: paleocoordinates 55.7° N, 10.0° E)

• coordinate based on political unit

• outcrop-level geographic resolution

When: Berriasian (145.0 - 139.8 Ma)

• STRATIGRAPHIC RELATIONS: From the lower marl and shale series of the "Hectoroceras beds". AGE: Spath (1947) dated the unit as infra-Valanginian, between the Tithonian and Valanginian (s.s.). This now correlates to the Berriasian stage. STRATIGRAPHIC POSITION: From the concretions near the very top of the lower marl and shale series

• bed-level stratigraphic resolution

Environment/lithology: offshore; lithified, concretionary, micaceous, sandy shale

Size class: macrofossils

Preservation: cast, mold/impression
