| The fossils come from different, superposed lithologies. Those include: purple clays, gray clays, marls, but also limestones and molasse. No distinction is made about the exact provenance of the fossils from these various levels. | The ref. Ginsburg (1964)is an update of previous works (Lartet 1836-1858) and Filhol (1891), but it was published as new excavations were taking place. |

| MN5-7, Middle Miocene. Karst fissures and channels in a marble quarry of probable Proterozoic age. Przeworno 2 is a 12m vertical fissure in the west wall of the quarry, filled with clay and blocks of marble. Probably the same age as Przeworno 1. | clay and blocks of marble. | Local environment probably mixed with both humid forests and savannas nearby (interpretation based on fauna). |

| MN5"c"; Obere Süßwassermolasse (Upper Freshwater Molasse), Middle Miocene, MN6; the fossils are taken from the "Brockhorizont" a layer in the sorrounding of the Ries, which generated during the Ries-meteor-impact. So the fossils have the same age as the impact, which is estimated to have taken place 14,7 Myr ago. MN5"c" (=upper MN5) after Bollinger 1994. | The "Brockhorizont" is characterized by boulders of Weißjura (Upper Jurassic) scattered around in the sand- and claydeposits. |

| Auge et al (2002) suggest that some continental sediments of MN3 age have been reworked into this (MN5) locality so there is some incongruence in the taxonomic list | Falun |
