Where: Russian Federation (58.0° N, 56.3° E: paleocoordinates 31.0° N, 44.2° E)
• coordinate based on nearby landmark
• outcrop-level geographic resolution
When: Kungurian to Kungurian (279.3 - 268.8 Ma)
• Murchison, Verneuil, and Keyserling did not visit Mount Tchelpan so they assign a Permian age to the limestones only because they contain "Mytilus" pallasi.
• group of beds-level stratigraphic resolution
Environment/lithology: shallow subtidal; lithified limestone
Size class: macrofossils
