Where: Nei Mongol, China (41.3° N, 119.2° E: paleocoordinates 42.6° N, 122.4° E)
• coordinate stated in text
• outcrop-level geographic resolution
When: Daohugou Formation, Callovian to Callovian (164.7 - 155.7 Ma)
• The age of the Daohugou fauna has been controversial. Liu et al. (2012) obtained U-Pb shrimp ages of 160.5 and 161.0 Myr on ash beds associated with fossils of the Daohugou fauna, suggesting a Callovian-Oxfordian age.
