Preliminary correlation is based on faunal similarities. A total of 45 taxa were identified, of which Cyclocardia kieli sp. nov. is new to science. New combinations are Macron escalonia (Vermeij and DeVries, 1997), Austrofusus steinmanni (Möricke, 1896) and Leukoma antiqua (King, 1832). For several species, the oldest occurrences and range extensions are reported. Co-occurrence of warm water taxa, previously assigned to MIS 11, and typical Pliocene taxa on Mejillones cannot be confirmed. Pliocene and Pleistocene mollusk faunas from Mejillones are listed for comparison.
