Name

edit

Triamyxa coprolithica Qvarnström et al., 2021

Holotype: complete specimen preserved in coprolite ZPAL AbIII/3520, stored at the Institute of Paleobiology, Polish Academy of Sciences (Warsaw).

Paratypes: one complete and 13 partly to totally disarticulated specimens in the same coprolite.

Type locality and horizon: Krasiejów clay pit, near Ozimek, Upper Silesia, Poland. The material from the upper bonebed, part of the Keuper succession from Silesia, can be correlated with the Drawno Beds. Biostratigraphic data support a late Carnian age of the Krasiejów biota.
