UCMP V4602, Hurricane (Triassic to of the United States)

Where: Washington County, Utah (37.2° N, 113.4° W: paleocoordinates 6.4° N, 40.1° W)

• coordinate based on nearby landmark

• outcrop-level geographic resolution

When: Torrey Member (Moenkopi Formation), Aegean to Aegean (247.2 - 242.0 Ma)

• Upper red member is equivalent to the Holbrook Member of Arizona.

•Lucas & Schoch (2002: Lethaia 35: 97-106) inferred the Holbrook member to be earliest Anisian (Aegean–Bithynian) in age based upon tetrapod biostratigraphy (Eocyclotosaurus used to correlate Holbrook Member to German Upper Bundsandstein) and magnetostratigraphy

• bed-level stratigraphic resolution

Environment/lithology: terrestrial; lithology not reported

Size class: macrofossils

Preservation: trace
