Where: British Columbia, Canada (58.7° N, 124.4° W: paleocoordinates 33.3° N, 27.6° W)
• coordinate estimated from map
• outcrop-level geographic resolution
When: Fantasque Formation, Guadalupian (273.0 - 259.5 Ma)
• 81 feet below top of the formation. Conodonts indicate that the Fantasque Formation ranges from the Roadian-Wuchiapingian, and locally into the Changhsingian, so the age could be Lopingian.
Environment/lithology: marine; lithified chert
Size class: macrofossils
Reposited in the GSC
