Where: Madanin, Tunisia (33.4° N, 10.2° E)

• Paleocoordinates: 4.2° S, 20.0° E (Wright 2013)

• coordinate estimated from map

• basin-level geographic resolution

When: Wordian (266.9 - 264.3 Ma)

• "Baten beni Zid Series" includes the "dolomies inferieures" (lower Dolomite) and "marnes du Chabet en Guer" (Chabet en Guer marls). It is difficult to ascertain how this unit correlates to those of Newell et al. (1976). Wordian age is suggested by the co-occurrence of Neoschwagerina and Yabeina.

• member-level stratigraphic resolution

Environment/lithology: marine; marl and carbonate

Size class: macrofossils

Collection methods: surface (float), surface (in situ),

• Fossils collected over wide area of Djebel Tebaga.
