Caprizzi (Socchieve) (Triassic of Italy)

Where: Italy (46.4° N, 12.8° E: paleocoordinates 26.4° N, 16.1° E)

• coordinate estimated from map

• outcrop-level geographic resolution

When: Dolomia di Forni Formation, Alaunian (215.6 - 212.0 Ma)

• Dolomia di Forni is late Alaunian-early Sevatian, but most of the exceptional fossils (such as decapods) come from the lower member.

• group of beds-level stratigraphic resolution

• It represents deposition in an anoxic marine basin whose maximum depth was about 400 m, and was surrounded by the shallow water carbonate platform of the Dolomia Principale Formation

Preservation: adpression

Collection methods: surface (float)
