The separation of Laurasia and Gondwana, which was initiated by the Triassic break-up of Pangea, continued during Early-Middle Jurassic times. The origin of the narrow sea strait. so-called "Hispanic Corridor", took place between these two continents and connection of the Panthalassa Ocean (Proto-Pacific) and western (Alpine) Tethys gradually started in Early Jurassic, most probably in Sinemurian-Pliensbachian times. Recovery of marine fauna after Triassic/Jurassic mass extinction event was mainly marked by world-wide distribution of Lithiotis-type bivalve buildups. They indicate mainly shallow-marine/lagoon-type carbonate sedimentation and palaeogeographic/geodynamic regimes during break-up of Pangea in Pliensbachian-Early Toarcian times.
