Where: Hungary (47.3° N, 17.7° E: paleocoordinates 0.6° N, 30.1° E)
• coordinate based on nearby landmark
• outcrop-level geographic resolution
When: Lower Member (Csopak Formation), Spathian (251.3 - 247.2 Ma)
• The Csopak Marl at the Hidegkut outcrop locality contains Spathian ammonoids (Tirolites, Dalmatites) throughout the section. Although the borehole samples do not have those biostratigraphic markers, a Spathian age is assigned.
• group of beds-level stratigraphic resolution
Environment/lithology: lagoonal or restricted shallow subtidal; bioturbated, fine-grained, gray, calcareous marl and silty marl
