Where: Poland (50.5° N, 21.1° E: paleocoordinates 41.9° S, 56.7° E)
• coordinate based on political unit
• local area-level geographic resolution
When: Lochkovian (419.2 - 410.8 Ma)
Environment/lithology: marine; gray, calcareous claystone
Collection methods: core
• Because complete faunal lists are not given for each level (some levels are said to have fauna similar to others) I have agglomerated several levels post-dating the Acastella tiro zone but still within the Lower Bostovian.
