Tepee-like structures, erosional lower boundary

Supra-tidal

Outer platform depositional facies

FA4—Landward sand belt facies association (Colombrina section)

4a. Bioclastic wackestone

m-thick wackestone with peloids, algae, molluscs (small nerineids and large diceratids, Figs. F in Plate 25, F in Plate 26), benthic forams (textularids and miliolids), oncoids, angular intraclasts and microbialites
