Comment: | This faunule is undoubtedly of Upper Triassic age, and represents the shallow-water reef fauna of the tropical zone so widespread throughout the Tethys during Late Triassic times. Heterastridium is especially interesting, for it is known only from Late Triassic rocks and has heretofore been found only once before in America (Alaska, J.P. Smith, 1927). |
