Catalogue summary
Integrated fossil and magnetic evidence from Armenia's Urtsadzor section recalibrates late-Eocene larger-foraminifer events against global plankton zones outside the usual southwest European sites.
Why this matters
The continuous Armenian sequence improves correlation of shallow- and deep-water records across the Bartonian-Priabonian transition and tests presumed extinction timing.
