Where: Nord-Trondelag, Norway (63.9° N, 10.9° E: paleocoordinates 54.0° N, 16.2° E)

• coordinate stated in text

• small collection-level geographic resolution

When: Bajocian to Bajocian (170.3 - 166.1 Ma)

• "Of the seven cuticles here described, four have been identified with species from the Deltaic Series of Yorkshire, indicating that the age is almost the same." (Abstract, p. 193). Hence my estimate of Bajocian-Bathonian stage assignments.

Size class: macrofossils

Preservation: adpression, coalified, original carbon, replaced with siderite

Collection methods: surface (float), chemical,

• "The flora appears to be peculiar in its strong xeromorphy" (p. 213)
