Where: Indonesia (4.0° S, 104.0° E: paleocoordinates 4.6° S, 110.0° E)

• coordinate based on political unit

• hand sample-level geographic resolution

When: Chattian (28.1 - 23.0 Ma)

The Tertiary-e "letter stage" of the Indo-Pacific spans the Late Oligocene (Te1-4) and earliest Miocene (Aquitanian-early Burdigalian; Te5) (Boudagher-Fadel & Banner, 1999)

Environment/lithology: marine; lithified shale

Size class: mesofossils

Preservation: replaced with pyrite
