Fukuji lmst. float microgastropods (Carboniferous of Japan)

Where: Gifu, Japan (36.2° N, 137.5° E: paleocoordinates 14.4° N, 100.9° E)

• coordinate stated in text

When: ? Ichinotani Formation, Kasimovian (307.0 - 303.7 Ma)

• according to Maekawa et al. (2018) Kasimovian conodont species in the float; float might be from the Triticites Zone of the Ichinotani Fm. (Harayama 1990); lmst clasts may also derive from Permian conglomerates of the Sorayama Formation

• lmst were deposited in an aerobic environment in the photoc zone, such as shallow reef; based on ostracods also a high-energy environment in a fore-reef ecosystem is possible

Size classes: mesofossils, microfossils
