• coordinate estimated from map

• small collection-level geographic resolution

When: Balabansai Formation, Bathonian to Bathonian (168.3 - 163.5 Ma)

• The mammal molar and ulna were found in the lowermost part of the red-colored interval of the Jurassic. The mammalian incisor or reptilian tooth came from the
