Paleocoordinates:7.3° North, 137.4° East (Wright 2013)
Basis of coordinate:estimated from map
Time
Period: Triassic Epoch: Middle Triassic
Stage: Ladinian 10 m.y. bin: Triassic 2
Key time interval: Ladinian Zone:  Muelleritortis cochleata
Age range of interval: 241.464 - 237 m.y. ago
Stratigraphy
Stratigraphy comments: studied sections are in the Kamiaso unit, which consists of thrust sheets of sedimentary sequences containing Triassic to Lower Jurassic bedded cherts and overying Middle Jurassic clastic rocks (sandstones, mudstone); studied thin sections (N and O) are located in the CH-2 thrust sheet
Lithology and environment
Primary lithology: chert
Includes fossils?Y
Environment:basinal (siliceous)
Geology comments: absence of carbonate rocks suggests that the primary depositional site was deeper than CCD, and beyond the reach of terrigenous clastic material
Taphonomy
Modes of preservation:body
Size of fossils:microfossils
Collection methods and comments
Reason for describing collection:biostratigraphic analysis
