Where: British Columbia, Canada (56.0° N, 123.2° W: paleocoordinates 21.7° N, 59.5° W)

• coordinate stated in text

• small collection-level geographic resolution

When: Pardonet Formation, Tuvalian (232.0 - 221.5 Ma)

• As the entire collection comes from beds in which ammonoids and conodonts are unknown, the age assignment is largely based on geographic position within rocks mapped as Pardonet Formation in close proximity to the stratigraphic contact with the Luddington Formation; most likely upper Carnian, presumably T. welleri Zone.

• bed-level stratigraphic resolution

Environment/lithology: offshore; lithified limestone

Size class: macrofossils

Preservation: recrystallized
