Stratigraphy
Lithology and environment
| Primary lithology: | volcaniclastic grainstone |
| Secondary lithology: | concretionary,volcaniclastic calcareous "shale" |
| Includes fossils? | Y |
| Lithology description: "...confined to light-colored biosparites, with a slight tuffaceous admixture, overlying a sequence of tuffaceous shales with carbonate lenses and concretions..." | |
| Environment: | marine indet. |
| Geology comments: "...located even farther from the main volcanoclastic body than the Coral-Crinoid Community...Brachiopods are a significant component...We assign it to BA 3 because of its similar composition [vis a vis Hircinisca-Ancillotoechia Comm], as well as its overall similarity to BA 3 communities elsewhere [perhaps near BA 3/4 boundary]." | |
Taphonomy
| Modes of preservation: | body |
| Size of fossils: | macrofossils |
Collection methods and comments
| Collection excludes: | some macrofossils |
| Reason for describing collection: | paleoecologic analysis |
| Collection method comments: Authors give abundance data (very rare, more frequent, frequent) for brachiopods. "Trilobites are rare. Other animal groups [besides trilobites and brachiopods] have not been studied." | |
