The dismembered Othrys ophiolite complex is a component of the Upper Jurassic to Lower Cretaceous Tethyan ophiolite belt, which includes the Pindos and Vourinos complexes. These ophiolites are characterized by petrological and geochemical features typical of both Mid-Ocean Ridge (MOR) and Supra-Subduction Zone (SSZ)-type associations (fore-arc and back-arc ridges).
