Summary[edit]

Description
English: Fossil vertebrates enclosed within carbonate concretions. Carbonate concretions enclosing marine vertebrate skeletons from the P1 strata of the Pisco Formation exposed at Cerro Colorado. A, B) Field photograph (A) and corresponding line drawing (B) of CCO60, skeleton of Messapicetus gregarius preserved in silts, in lateral disposition, exhibiting high degrees of articulation and completeness (4,4), and a conspicuous external carbonate concretion. Note that this specimen appears as preserved within a YBR sequence (yellow-black-red sediments of Gariboldi et al. 2015. C, D) Field photograph (C) and corresponding line drawing (D) of CCM22, skeleton of Cetotheriidae indet. preserved in sands, in dorsal disposition, exhibiting high degrees of articulation and completeness (4,4), and a conspicuous external carbonate concretion. Around the skull, this concretion underwent widespread erosion in the present-day desert environment.
