Where: Bulgaria (42.7° N, 23.3° E: paleocoordinates 2.9° S, 29.4° E)

• coordinate based on nearby landmark

• outcrop-level geographic resolution

When: Radomir Formation, Ladinian (242.0 - 237.0 Ma)

• Ladian brachiopod assemblages are geographically restricted and isolated from one another, which makes biostratigraphic correlation difficult. Within the lower part of the Costispiriferina bittneri - Lima cf inaequistriata Assemblage Zone in the Piarorhynchella trinodosi Abundance Subzone

• group of beds-level stratigraphic resolution

Environment/lithology: shallow subtidal; limestone

Size class: macrofossils
