Where: Veszprem, Hungary (46.9° N, 17.6° E: paleocoordinates 1.4° N, 29.1° E)

• coordinate based on nearby landmark

• small collection-level geographic resolution

When: Felsörs Formation, Anisian (247.2 - 242.0 Ma)

• group of beds-level stratigraphic resolution

Environment/lithology: basinal (); limestone

Size class: macrofossils

Collection methods: Most of the bivalve remains are internal molds with remians of shell. Internal features could be studied only in a very few cases.
