Maunlai ridge screeHaig D. W., McCartain E., et al (2014)Maubisse LimestoneAlthough no conodonts were recovered from the type section, a sample from 320 m further west along the limestone ridge yielded a Pa element fragment identified as probably Vjalovognathus australis Nicoll and Metcalfe. Although endemic to southern cool-water successions, the species indicates a late Sakmarian–Artinskian age based on west Australian successions.packstone295.5 - 290.1 Ma
