•

•The Pińczów Formation has been assigned to the early–middle Badenian based on foraminiferal data [195, 196], and is constrained by the occurrence of Orbulina suturalis (first appearing at 15.1 Ma [20]) and its correlation with the Lagenidae benthic foraminiferal zone [197], which terminates at or near the Langhian-Serravallian boundary [198], i.e. 13.8 Ma [54].
