Paleocoordinates: | 3.3° North, 18.7° East |
Basis of coordinate: | estimated from map |
Geographic resolution: | outcrop |
Time

Age range of interval: | 298.90000 - 295.50000 m.y. ago |
Stratigraphy
Formation: | Meisenheim | Member: | Jeckenbach | ||
Stratigraphy comments: Lower Rotliegendes, Jeckenbach-Schichten, L-O5. |
Lithology and environment
Primary lithology: | lithified "siliciclastic" | ||
Environment: | lacustrine - large | Tectonic setting: | rift |
Geology comments: Saar-Nahe basin; Half-graben generated by extension on South Hunsruck bounding fault, but with some component of dextral strike-slip transtension in an intermontane setting following the Variscan orogeny. "They [Niedermoschel beds] represent the profundal facies of a large lake and yield an aquatic fauna…The abundance of terrestrial plants and insects has been attributed to a strong deltaic input" (Poschmann & Schindler 1997). |
Taphonomy
Modes of preservation: | mold/impression,adpression |
Size of fossils: | macrofossils |
Collection methods and comments
Reason for describing collection: | taxonomic analysis |
Collection method comments: Repository: Palaeontological Museum Nierstein; Landesamt fur Denkmalpflege Rheinland-Pfalz; Naturhistorisches Museum Mainz, Landessammlung fur Naturkunde Rheinland-Pfalz | |
Taxonomic list comments:"Vertebrates and crustaceans , such as ostracodes, conchostracans and syncarids"(Bethoux & Poschmann 2009). "Insects are usually preserved as paired or isolated wings, or fragments thereof. Completely preserved large wings (>2 cm) are rare. Animals with body and wings preserved are rare exceptions, and the number of such fossils decreases with increasing size" (Hornschemeyer 1998). |
