Geography
Country:Spain
Coordinates: 36.7° North, 5.4° West (view map)
Paleocoordinates:7.9° North, 5.5° East
Basis of coordinate:stated in text
Geographic resolution:outcrop
Time
Period:Triassic Epoch:Late/Upper Triassic
Stage:Carnian 10 m.y. bin:Triassic 3
Key time interval:Carnian
Age range of interval:237.00000 - 227.00000 m.y. ago
Stratigraphy
Stratigraphy comments: Dated as Carnian (Upper Triassic) in age on the basis of the contained bivalve, conodont, and pollen assemblages
Lithology and environment
Primary lithology: lithified "limestone"
Environment:shallow subtidal indet.
Geology comments: Although the Boyar Section represents marine environments, and other Triassic marine sharks have been found in several levels through the whole section (pers. observ.), the record of Lonchidion derenzii, sp. nov., is limited to a particular level that represents a very shallow marine platform with close continental influence
Taphonomy
Modes of preservation:body
Size of fossils:macrofossils
Collection methods and comments
Collection methods:chemical
Reason for describing collection:taxonomic analysis
Collection method comments: Repository: Museum of Geology at the University of Valencia (MGUV)
