Abstract

The Mesozoic amber of Schliersee (southern Germany) is about 130 myr younger than previously proposed. Using biostratigraphic and petrographic data as well as field evidence we demonstrate that the amber-bearing sandstone is of Late Cretaceous age (Cenomanian, 99-93 Ma) and that the previously proposed Late Triassic age (Carnian, 230-220 Ma) must be rejected. This has several consequences for the interpretation of the fossil micro-organisms included in the amber. Œ 2001 Academic Press.
