Also known as Belodon type locality

Where: Baden-Württemberg, Germany (49.1° N, 9.4° E: paleocoordinates 32.2° N, 10.4° E)

• coordinate based on nearby landmark

• local area-level geographic resolution

When: Löwenstein Formation (Keuper Group), Norian (228.0 - 208.5 Ma)

• Stratigraphic levels of collections within Löwenstein Formation are unclear (Hungerbühler 1998)

• formation-level stratigraphic resolution

Environment/lithology: dry floodplain; coarse-grained sandstone

Size class: macrofossils

Collected by von Hügel in 1850; reposited in the SMNS

• GPIT: Paläontologische Sammlung der Universität Tübingen

•At least three distinct collections represented: the syntypes (lost) of Belodon plieningeri, the von Hügel collection (some of which is now held at SMNS) and a collection of material in Tübingen (GPIT) (see Hungerbühler 1998: 374–378)
