Fig. 4 European Valanginian shorelines. Stipple indicates land areas; asterisk =area from which the corals of the Vitznau Marl were derived (modified from Tyson & Funnell, 1987). The paleocoordinates of the collecting site are: 38° 11’ N, 18° 10’ E (paleocoordinates estimated using information available on Paleobiology Database [paleobiodb. org])
