Platy limestone-shale facies, lower Lochkovian, Barrandian S-D boundary section (Devonian of Czech Republic)

Where: Czech Republic (49.9° N, 14.2° E)

• Paleocoordinates: 18.0° S, 7.1° E (Wright 2013)

• coordinate based on political unit

• local area-level geographic resolution

When: Monograptus uniformis zone, Radotin Member (Lochkov Formation), Lochkovian (419.2 - 410.8 Ma)

• member-level stratigraphic resolution

Environment/lithology: deep subtidal; limestone and shale

• "Dark coloured, dominantly fine-grained platy limestones with abundant intercalations of shales (Radotin facies)...[believed to be from less aerated, deeper, calmer environment than pure carbonate facies]"

Size class: macrofossils
