Koängen drill core 33.16–33.17 m (Ordovician of Sweden)

Where: Skane, Sweden (55.7° N, 13.3° E: paleocoordinates 36.9° S, 8.7° W)

• coordinate estimated from map

• small collection-level geographic resolution

When: Diplograptus foliaceus graptolite zone, Skagen Formation, Keila (453.9 - 453.0 Ma)

• Based on Figure 2. Spinachitina cervicornis chitinozoan zone.

• bed-level stratigraphic resolution

Environment/lithology: open shallow subtidal; limestone

• At Fågelsång, the Skagen Formation represents a carbonate facies in an otherwise clastic depositional environment, suggesting shallowing (Bergström et al. 1992, 1997; Nielsen 2004).

Size classes: macrofossils, mesofossils, microfossils
