326+.5 (Silurian of Austria)

Where: Austria (46.6° N, 12.9° E)

• Paleocoordinates: 30.9° S, 15.0° E (Wright 2013)

• coordinate stated in text

When: Polygnathoides siluricus conodont zone, Cardiola Formation, Ludlow (426.7 - 422.7 Ma)

Environment/lithology: shallow subtidal; lithified limestone and lithified shale

• Black bituminous shales interfinger with lenses of dark micritic limestones yielding nautiloids, bivalve representatives of the genus Cardiola (Kříž 1979, 1999) and cono - donts of the P. siluricus Zone. The fauna is dominated by nautiloids embedded in a matrix of bioclasts which are frequently coated by micritic envelopes

Size class: microfossils
