Klinteberg Beds: Fossils of Hoburgen-type reef limestone (Manten 1971, Table IX) (Silurian to of Sweden)

Also known as Reef 1802

Where: Gotland, Sweden (57.5° N, 18.4° E: paleocoordinates 19.1° S, 2.6° W)

• coordinate based on political unit

• local area-level geographic resolution

When: Klinteberg Beds Formation, Homerian to Homerian (430.5 - 425.6 Ma)

• Correlation based on Jeppsson (1983), Fossils and Strata 15:128.

• group of beds-level stratigraphic resolution

Environment/lithology: reef, buildup or bioherm; limestone and reef rocks

• SEP: from Samtleben et al. (1996). Geol Rundsch 85:278; "In the central ara of Gotland..consists of narrowly spaced reefmounds consisting mainly of tabulates, sstromatopores and bryozoans within a shoal area with coarse and medium-grained biodetritic and crinoidal limestones, which have been extensively transported, washed and sorted. To the west the platform ends with a slope forming the transition to a deeper basin area where limestone-marl alterations were deposited. In the eastern part of Gotland...series of limestones (mainly wackestones and packstones), often oncolitic and with an impoverished fauna. They accumulated in shallow water under back reef to restricted marine conditions." based on given info. i have assumed buildup facies
