FIGURE 1. Stratigraphical nomenclature and correlations of the Artinskian, Kungurian, and Roadian (partim) interval (based on Ross and Ross, 1995; Henderson et al., 2012; Davydov et al., 2013, and Lucas et al., 2015 modified). Abbreviations: KUB = Kubergandian; part. = partim (partially; in Latin); SST. = Sandstone; sp. = undetermined species; spp. = several undetermined species. Numbers 272.3, 279.3, and 290.1 represent radiometric ages in million years according to Henderson et al. (2012).
