Seazza creek river bed, MFSN 21545 (Triassic to of Italy)

Where: Friuli-Venezia Giulia, Italy (46.4° N, 12.9° E: paleocoordinates 27.5° N, 16.2° E)

• coordinate based on nearby landmark

When: Dolomia di Forni Formation, Alaunian to Alaunian (215.6 - 205.6 Ma)

• "unknown stratigraphical position in the Dolomia di Forni"

•Dolmomia di Forni "spans the Alaunian 2 - Sevatian 1 interval"; middle-late Norian (Dalla Vecchia 2006)

• bed-level stratigraphic resolution

Environment/lithology: basinal (); dolomite

• "The Dolomia di Forni is composed mainly of dark, often cherty, well-bedded dolostone that is frequently thinly laminated and sometimes slumped. Thicker laminae are graded and represent distal turbidites...the basinal facies preserving the tetrapod remains are composed mainly of distal turbidites and carbonate mud deposited by fallout"

Size class: macrofossils
