Where: Slovenia (45.9° N, 14.7° E: paleocoordinates 30.7° N, 18.3° E)
• coordinate estimated from map
• local area-level geographic resolution
When: Hettangian to Hettangian (201.3 - 190.8 Ma)
Environment/lithology: shallow subtidal; limestone
•biomiciritic and oncomicritic limestones, that alternate rhythmically. In
•the thick-bedded oosparitic limestones are to be found intraclasts (intraclastic grainstones) and bioclasts (bioclastic grainstones). Intraclasts are subangular to poorly rounded and up to one centimeter in size. They belong to micritic, biosparitic, intrasparitic and laminated limestones. Bioclasts are represented by more or less rounded and micritized fragments of algae, molluscs and foraminifers.
Size classes: mesofossils, microfossils
