Where: Turkey (41.0° N, 32.1° E: paleocoordinates 31.4° N, 29.9° E)
• coordinate estimated from map
• outcrop-level geographic resolution
When: Davutlar Formation, Campanian (83.6 - 72.1 Ma)
Environment/lithology: marine; lithified, gray marl and lithified, sandy limestone
•main part of the exposed and accessible succession is about
•18 m thick and is made up of thick grey marly beds with
