Lithology and environment
Primary lithology: | shelly/skeletal "limestone" |
Includes fossils? | Y |
Lithology description: Limestone composed of skeletal remains of red algae and bryozoans. | |
Environment: | deep subtidal shelf |
Geology comments: Accumulated in shallow-marine environment (10-30 m) under strong water agitation, not far from the shore. |
Taphonomy
Modes of preservation: | body |
Size of fossils: | macrofossils |
Collection methods and comments
Collection methods: | field collection |
Reason for describing collection: | paleoecologic analysis |
Collection method comments: Collections are housed in the Museum of the Earth (Polish Academy of Sciences, Warsaw). Material collected by Pisera in 1972. Some material is housed in the Museum of the State Geological Survey | |
Taxonomic list comments:Exhaustive for bivalvia. No other Molluscan groups reported. Nomenclature appears fair to good. |
