Fauna interbedded with T. vermiculata Community, Chortkov suite, Podolia (Devonian of Ukraine)

Where: Ukraine (48.8° N, 25.7° E: paleocoordinates 47.4° S, 75.2° E)

• coordinate based on political unit

• local area-level geographic resolution

When: Chortkov Suite Formation, Lochkovian (419.2 - 410.8 Ma)

• Chortkov Suite of the Zyganka series.

• formation-level stratigraphic resolution

Environment/lithology: marine; grainstone and gray, green mudstone

• "The abundant [list of fauna] in well sorted coarse-grained biodetrital limestone, form interbeds in gray-green mudstone...Sokolov and Tesakov (1984) assigned [interbedded facies of shales containing Tiverina vermiculata Community] to a lagoonal and nearshore shoal facies. We assign it to BA 2."
