Stratigraphy
Lithology and environment
| Primary lithology: | grainstone |
| Environment: | perireef or subreef |
| Geology comments: It consists of well-sorted and well-winnowed, cross-bedded coralline algal debris grainstones with large, northwest-dipping sigmoidal foresets (coralline algal debris facies). The algal debris comprises broken corallinacean branches and fragments of crustose forms as well as small (4 cm) laminar rhodoliths. | |
Taphonomy
| Modes of preservation: | body |
| Size of fossils: | macrofossils,mesofossils |
Collection methods and comments
| Reason for describing collection: | general faunal/floral analysis |
