Where: Queensland, Australia (25.1° S, 150.2° E: paleocoordinates 60.2° S, 144.7° E)

• coordinate based on nearby landmark

• outcrop-level geographic resolution

When: Barfield Formation, Wuchiapingian (259.9 - 254.2 Ma)

• Brachiopods suggest an age in the Pseudostophalosia ingelarensis zone or younger, correlated with the upper part of APP4.3 palynomorph zone or lower part of APP5 (Briggs, 1998). The APP4.3 zone was constrained as mid-Wuchiapingian age and APP5 as mid-Wuchiapingian through Changhsingian age by U-Pb dating in Laurie et al. (2016). However, overlying units yield latest Wuchiapingian U-Pb ages (Phillips et al., 2018), constraining the formation to Wuchiapingian.
