Where: Italy (46.0° N, 11.8° E: paleocoordinates 33.1° N, 20.9° E)
• coordinate stated in text
• hand sample-level geographic resolution
When: Listato Member (Calcare Selcifero di Fonzaso Formation), Callovian (166.1 - 163.5 Ma)
• sample PS D, lithozone C, UAZ95: 7-8 [An Early Oxfordian age can not be firmly excluded on the basis of radiolarians. But the Early Oxfordian age is not likely, because calcareous nannofossils of Callovian age are associated throughout the studied interval.]
• bed-level stratigraphic resolution
Environment/lithology: basinal (); lithified, cherty/siliceous wackestone
Size class: microfossils
