Where: British Columbia, Canada (53.3° N, 132.0° W: paleocoordinates 22.9° N, 110.8° W)
• coordinate stated in text
• outcrop-level geographic resolution
When: Haida Formation, Albian (113.0 - 100.5 Ma)
• STRATIGRAPHIC RELATIONS: From the lower sandstone member of the Haida Fm, which rests with apparent unconformity on the Jurassic Yakoun Fm, and is overlain by the shale member, which passes up into the Honna Fm. AGE: Albian, on the basis of ammonite biostratigraphy. STRATIGRAPHIC POSITION: Presumably near the base of the section.
• bed-level stratigraphic resolution
Environment/lithology: coastal; lithified, concretionary, gray, green sandstone
Size class: macrofossils
Preservation: mold/impression
