Chotec Limestone of the Eifelian, Barrandia (CZE) (Devonian of Czech Republic)
Where: Barrandia, Czech Republic (49.5° N, 14.3° E: paleocoordinates 29.8° S, 39.0° E)
When: Chotec Limestone Member (Chotec Formation), Eifelian (393.3 - 387.7 Ma)
Environment/lithology: deep subtidal; graded, gray lime mudstone and calcareous, cherty/siliceous mudstone
• "Benthic Assemblage 4 to 5 (in dark shale beds even 6) of Boucot."
• "grey to dark grey well bedded limestones of two principle types: 1 micritic and biomicritic limestones with knobby bedding surfaces, 2 Bioclastic fine to coarse sparitic and bituminous limestones with frequent lamination (even cross lamination present), well sorted bioclasts, graded bedding microbreccias and wave ripples in some layers. A third rock type is generally subordinated dark grey calcareous shales (mudstones) with pyrite, thin plane lamiation... cherts are locally common
