Where: Canton Basel-Landschaft, Switzerland (47.4° N, 7.5° E: paleocoordinates 46.9° N, 4.0° E)
• coordinate estimated from map
• small collection-level geographic resolution
When: MP 22 mammal zone, Rupelian (33.9 - 28.1 Ma)
• "Regarding Kleinblauen, its stratigraphical position can be strengthened, as the local faunal record occurs at the end of the regressive phase of the second Rhenish marine incursion, corresponding to top MP22. This supports the biostratigraphical range proposed for both occurrences of E. magnum and E. aff. magnum" (from Becker, 2009)
