Where: Pakistan (33.6° N, 70.9° E: paleocoordinates 30.2° S, 48.8° E)
• coordinate based on nearby landmark
• outcrop-level geographic resolution
When: Lumishwal Formation, Early/Lower Albian (112.0 - 109.0 Ma)
• Top of the Lumishwal Formation, from a condensed fauna. Ammonites indicate several levels in the Lower Albian (elsewhere in the region the Lumishwal Formation yields Middle and Late Albian ammonites).
• bed-level stratigraphic resolution
Environment/lithology: lithified limestone
Size class: macrofossils
Preservation: mold/impression, replaced with phosphate
Collection methods: Repository: Geological Survey of Pakistan
