Where: New South Wales, Australia (34.0° S, 148.8° E: paleocoordinates 1.5° S, 175.2° E)
• coordinate estimated from map
• local area-level geographic resolution
When: Camelford Formation, Pridoli (423.0 - 419.2 Ma)
• Brachiopods suggest Pridoli age, as does some of the conodont data. Age coincides with that of Camelford Limestone near Wellington, based on conodonts found in that formation.
• formation-level stratigraphic resolution
Environment/lithology: marine; gray grainstone
Size class: microfossils
Preservation: replaced with silica
