Pisocrinus-Gissocrinus Assoc., Hartung QuarryFrest T. J., Brett C. E., et al (1999)Racinelower-middle Racine Formation. Age range for association stated as Wenlockian-Ludlovian (which corresponds to age range of Racine). I have assigned this to Wenlockian based on other collections from lower-middle Racine [e.g. coll. 13353] treated by this reference as Wenlockian.wackestone433.4 - 427.4 Ma
