Porto das Barcas (PB) (Jurassic to of Portugal)

Where: Centro, Portugal (39.2° N, 9.3° W: paleocoordinates 33.5° N, 1.0° E)

• coordinate stated in text

• small collection-level geographic resolution

When: Praia Azul Member (Lourinhã Formation), Late/Upper Kimmeridgian to Late/Upper Kimmeridgian (155.7 - 145.0 Ma)

• bed-level stratigraphic resolution

Environment/lithology: marine; intraclastic, gray mudstone and sandstone

• "wetter conditions, probably associated with perma- nent sheet of water and anoxic environments"
• "massive tabular beds of dark marls with occasional silts and very coarse sandstones interbedded. They form five, dm in thickness, coarsening upwards sequences based on an increase in grain size, intraclasts and bioclasts occurrence. The bioturbation or nodulization are practically absent."

Size classes: macrofossils, mesofossils

Collected in 2016–2017

Collection methods: bulk, surface (in situ), sieve,
