The occurence of hermatypic Corals (Astrocoenia palmata (Catullo), Porites nummulitica Reuss, Porites minuta Reuss, Favia subdenticulata (Catullo) and Antiguastrea lucasiana (Defrance) on the paleorelief of breccia limestones of the Lapithas mountain (central-western Peloponnesus) indicates an early Oligocene (Rupelian) age.
