Also known as UCMP V-72211

Where: Garfield County, Montana (47.6° N, 107.3° W: paleocoordinates 53.9° N, 82.8° W)

• coordinate based on unpublished field data

• small collection-level geographic resolution

When: Hell Creek Formation, Puercan (65.5 - 63.3 Ma)

• paleomagnetic sections are given by Archibald et al. 1982 and Swisher et al. 1995 but are not very helpful because the locality is from a channel sandstone deeply incised into the formation

• bed-level stratigraphic resolution

Environment/lithology: coarse channel fill; sandstone

Size class: mesofossils

Reposited in the UCMP

Collection methods: bulk, surface (float), sieve,
