Denay L.S. (Devonian), Section V, Sample 91, N. Antelope Range, Nevada (Devonian of the United States)

Where: Eureka County, Nevada (39.2° N, 116.2° W)

• Paleocoordinates: 22.3° S, 77.8° W (Wright 2013)

• coordinate based on nearby landmark

• outcrop-level geographic resolution

When: kockelianus zone, Denay Limestone Formation, Eifelian (393.5 - 387.9 Ma)

• Johnson et. al. (1996) list this bed as "Section Prefix: VW, Sample number 91, Nearest Foot: 706, Meters in section: 215.2". It is assumed that the nearest foot and meter measurements are referenced from the base of their Section V, as shown in Figures 2 and 3.

• bed-level stratigraphic resolution
