Lac des Bois, a locality in the northern Western Interior Seaway (Canada) with Tethyan faunal connections during the Cenomanian/Turonian Thermal Maximum
Early Turonian fishes are known from only a few localities in the Northern Hemisphere, including three in the present-day European/Mediterranean region and three in northern Canada. One of the latter localities, Lac des Bois (66°52.087ʹ N), preserves a diverse marine fauna composed of trace fossils,...

Early Turonian fishes are known from only a few localities in the Northern Hemisphere, including three in the present-day European/Mediterranean region and three in northern Canada. One of the latter localities, Lac des Bois (66°52.087ʹ N), preserves a diverse marine fauna composed of trace fossils, foraminifera, molluscs and actinopterygian fishes including early acanthomorphs. The molluscan fauna, as well as a radiometric date from bentonites recovered from the site, support an age of latest Cenomanian/early Turonian for the locality. This interval spans the global Oceanic Anoxic Event 2, a time characterized globally by high temperatures and high carbon burial. Although the Cenomanian/Turonian boundary interval has been documented in North America in the Arctic Sverdrup Basin and the southern Interior Seaway, the present study provides the first account of a faunal assemblage that inhabited the northern Western Interior Seaway during this interval.
