- Abstract
A section of bone is described from a well core retrieved from a depth of 2615 m MD (measured depth RKB; 2590 m mean sea level) in the Lunde Formation of the Snorre Oil Field, Norwegian North Sea. The specimen is interpreted to be the metaphyseal region of a limb bone showing radial fibro-lamellar tissue of a type described for Plateosaurus from the Late Triassic of Germany.Associated palynomorphs suggest the Norwegian specimen to be from the Early Rhaetian (ca. 202-203 Ma).
