Where: Hradec Králové, Czech Republic (50.6° N, 15.7° E: paleocoordinates 9.3° N, 25.5° E)

• coordinate estimated from map

• outcrop-level geographic resolution

When: Prosecne Formation, Cisuralian (298.9 - 273.0 Ma)

• The bed richest in actinopterygians was encountered in the section opposite to house No. 33 at Klasterska Lhota, 4 metres above the river level; the second richest bed was found at the same place, 10 metres above the river level. [Specimens not assigned specifically to either of these beds in the publication.]

Environment/lithology: lacustrine; gray, green, red, calcareous mudstone

Size class: macrofossils

Collected by S. Stamberg and J. Drabkova in 1997-2002

• The first bones and scales of actinopterygian fishes were found by J. Drabkova in the course of a detailed study at the locality, and a list of the findings was published by Zajic (1997) in the final report of the Grant Project 205/94/0692. The author of this paper was studying the conspicuous beds at Klasterska Lhota for the last three years and obtained relatively abundnat palaeontological material...All specimens are deposited in the collection of the Department of Natural History, Museum Hradec Kralove.
