Where: Guangxi, China (22.4° N, 107.6° E: paleocoordinates 6.4° N, 126.7° E)

• coordinate based on political unit

• outcrop-level geographic resolution

When: Nagaoling Formation, Lochkovian to Lochkovian (419.2 - 407.6 Ma)

• According to the authors correlation chart, the Nagaoling Fm. only barely enters the Pragian, thus it is my opinion that most of these taxa are sampled from Lochkovian strata

• formation-level stratigraphic resolution

Environment/lithology: marine; lithified siltstone and limestone

Size class: macrofossils

Collection methods: bulk,
