Where: Spain (41.6° N, 2.2° E: paleocoordinates 41.8° N, 1.5° E)

When: Late/Upper Miocene (11.6 - 5.3 Ma)

• For Ronda Oest Sabadell (ROS), Santiga and Can Poncic 1, there are no magnetostratigraphic data, so their correlation is entirely based on biostratigraphy. Santiga and Can Poncic 1 have yielded abundant remains of the cricetid Cricetulodon hartenbergeri, characteristic of the C. hartenbergeri local range zone, which covers part of the Early Vallesian and ranges from about 10.4 to 9.9 Ma (Casanovas-Vilar et al., 2011a).

Environment/lithology: terrestrial; lithology not reported

Size class: macrofossils

• Can Poncic 1: IPS15033, right premaxillary fragment with I2–I3; IPS13177, complete right p4.
