Also known as Suchomasty Limestone of the Dalejan, Barrandia (CZE)

Where: Barrandia, Czech Republic (49.5° N, 14.3° E: paleocoordinates 39.2° S, 49.1° E)

When: Suchomasty Limestone Member, Early/Lower Devonian (419.2 - 393.3 Ma)

Environment/lithology: shallow subtidal; gray, red wackestone and grainstone

• "shallow subtidal rather high energy environment, Benthic Assemblage 3 of Boucot."
• "predominantly well-bedded red and grey biosparites and biomicrites with abrupt changes of grain size, locally common fenestral ("stromatactis") structures."

Size classes: macrofossils, mesofossils
