Basic information
Sample name: M013 Terre Rosse

Sample aka: M013

Reference: F. Masini, P. M. Rinaldi, A. Savorelli, and M. Pavia. 2013. A new small mammal assemblage from the M013 Terre Rosse fissure filling (Gargano, South-Eastern Italy). Geobios 46:49-61 [ER 3902]
Geography
Country: Italy

State: Foggia


Coordinate: 41.799999° N, 15.423009° E
Coordinate basis: estimated from map

Time interval: Late Miocene

Max Ma: 10.5

Min Ma: 6.4

Age basis: other

Geography comments: The precise location of M013 is not specified in the text, therefore the given coordinates are very roughly estimated based on map imagery and descriptions

The Terre Rosse deposits are situated within a heavily quarried zone between the towns of Apricena and Poggio Imperiale, Gargano, South-Eastern Italy

M013 is a fissure filling located in the south sector of the Dell'Erba quarry area

The precise chronological constraints of the Terre Rosse sites are contested therefore the widest margin of dates (mainly provided through biostratigraphy) is given

Environment

Habitat comments: M013 is a fissure filling within a maze of fractures through embedded limestone

No specific detail is given on taphonomy
