Also known as UCLA Loc. 2716; LACMIP Loc. 22716

Where: Baja California, Mexico (32.3° N, 117.0° W: paleocoordinates 32.3° N, 117.0° W)

• coordinate based on nearby landmark

• outcrop-level geographic resolution

When: Late/Upper Pleistocene (0.1 - 0.0 Ma)

• STRATIGRAPHIC RELATIONS: From unnamed lithostratigraphic unit, for which stratigraphic relations are not discussed. AGE: Pleistocene (terrace deposits, so presumably Late Pleistocene).

• bed-level stratigraphic resolution

Environment/lithology: marine; unlithified, shelly/skeletal, sandy conglomerate

Size class: macrofossils

Preservation: original aragonite, original calcite

Collected by Cunningham & Valentine in 1952; reposited in the LACM
