Where: Morocco (33.0° N, 7.0° W)

• Paleocoordinates: 34.7° S, 12.0° W (Wright 2013)

• coordinate estimated from map

• local area-level geographic resolution

When: Ludlow to Ludlow (427.4 - 423.0 Ma)

• Graptolites in underlying beds suggest Ludlow age. "The beds from which the fauan were obtained overlie those bearing graptolites, hence on stratigraphic superpositional relations the beds bearing it are Ludlow or younger in age."

• formation-level stratigraphic resolution

Environment/lithology: marine; sandstone and shale
