Where: Zambia (10.6° S, 33.0° E: paleocoordinates 54.6° S, 13.1° E)
• coordinate based on nearby landmark
• small collection-level geographic resolution
When: Cistecephalus Assemblage Zone other zone, Upper Member (Madumabisa Mudstone Formation), Wuchiapingian (259.9 - 254.2 Ma)
• Angielczyk et al. (2014) argued that the Upper Madumabisa Mudstone contains a single faunal assemblage correlated to the Cistecephalus Assemblage Zone of South Africa.
• bed-level stratigraphic resolution
Environment/lithology: terrestrial; siliciclastic sediments
Size class: macrofossils
Collected in 2009
