Where: Sweden (62.6° N, 18.0° E: paleocoordinates 62.6° N, 17.9° E)
• coordinate based on nearby landmark
• small collection-level geographic resolution
When: Late/Upper Pleistocene (0.1 - 0.0 Ma)
• One of the early Weichselian interstadials, either the Brörup or the Odderade Interstadial. Deposition during a Middle Weichselian interstadial is considered unlikely. The Brörup Interstadial is suggested, while a correlation with the Odderade seems less plausible.
• bed-level stratigraphic resolution
Environment/lithology: pond; unlithified, sandy peat
Size class: macrofossils
