Garatella neuquensis
No picture of Garatella neuquensis was found. Wikipedia, Wikidata and iDigBio were searched and had none. Smithsonian Open Access did not answer, so this is what the others held rather than everything there is. GBIF was asked, and what came back is not recorded: nothing, or a picture this site could not tie to Garatella neuquensis, or no answer at all. This entry cannot say which.

Time the record covers
At least 21 million years on record.
The record covers at least 143.1 Mya to 121.4 Mya. No occurrence read is dated outside 145.06 Mya to 113.2 Mya.
6 occurrences of Garatella neuquensis on record, most of them in the Early Cretaceous. Bar height is expected occurrences, not a count: each fossil is spread across the span it is dated to, so a tall narrow bar means tight dating and a low wide one means loose.
When
6 occurrencesThese are dates about fossils, not the animal: the record can only begin after it arose and end before it died out, so either end may reach further. Shares are expected occurrences: a fossil dated to a span is counted partly in each period it straddles. More on what this infers.

The Paleobiology Database records 6 sites for Garatella neuquensis, and this reads all of them. The number is how many of those sites it was catalogued from too.
This is not a list of everything alive at the time. It is only what has come out of the same ground as this animal and been written down.
Entered from
2 references- Jurassic and Cretaceous trigoniid bivalves from west-central Argentina5
- Miscellaneous PBDB housekeeping opinions, mostly to link duplicate genera or correct misspellings in Sepkoski's Genus Compendium (2002)1
Each of the 6 occurrences read was entered from one of these publications, ordered by how many each accounts for. This is not a search for papers mentioning the name. Each entry links to the Paleobiology Database's own record for the work.
