Use in stratigraphy
The top of the Carnian or the base of the Norian stages (Late Triassic) begin at the base of the conodont biozones of Metapolygnathus communisti and Metapolygnathus primitius. A global reference profile for the base (a GSSP) had in 2009 not yet been appointed.
gollark: <@462202902031761418> Don't play background music on your website. It is annoying and probably half the reason *why* autoplay is blocked. You probably can't bypass it in modern browsers because a lot of effort has been put in place to make it that way.

Stick with main sequences and dwarfs.” “You know, fire is the leading cause of fire.”“if you can’t find time to write, destroy the concept of time itself”“Strength is a strength just like other strengths.”
