Where: Isfahan, Iran (32.7° N, 49.9° E: paleocoordinates 23.8° S, 47.7° E)
• coordinate estimated from map
• outcrop-level geographic resolution
When: Guadalupian (273.0 - 259.5 Ma)
• Little age information in the original paper and specimens not collected with stratigraphic context. Douglas reports "Fusulina limestones" being common at many localities (including Eopolydiexodina persica), suggesting a Guadalupian age, based on more recent biostratigraphy by Davydov & Arefifard (2013).
• group of beds-level stratigraphic resolution
Environment/lithology: lithified limestone
