Invertebrate fossil occurrences from the Cretaceous Lopez de Bertodano Formation (Maastrichtian), Seymour Island, housed in the Paleontological Research Institution (PRI), Ithaca, NY
This dataset contains fossil occurrence data from the Cretaceous Lopez de Bertodano Formation (Maastrichtian), on Seymour Island, compiled in August 2022. Fossils were collected by Carlos Macellari and William Zinsmeister over several field seasons in the 1980s, and are presently (since 2010) reposited in the Paleontological Research Institution, Ithaca, NY. Data in this spreadsheet are presented by locality (station number, as compiled by PRI), with fossils identified at the family level.
