Giersdorf_00000651268266late- to post-KazanianBiostratigraphyAge is interpreted by the author as being linked to the "Mid Permian Event" which is a surge of tectonic activity that represents the final act of the Hercyanian/Variscan cycle   Yes  24815Trento Province (Trentino), Trentino-Alto Adige, ItalyTrento RegionCassinis et al. (2008) IJG127_519Age of the Val Daone Conglomerate is expressed as Mid to Upper Permian, late to post Kazanian and possibly up into the lower Tatarian. The age is derived from palynological evidence as well as other paleontological sources compiled and given an estimated age. See fig. 11

(2008) IJG127_519Age of the Treviogo is described as lower to middle Permian, mostly Kungarian. The age is derived from palynological evidence as well as other paleontological sources compiled and given an estimated age. See fig. 11

(2008) IJG127_519Age of the Collio Formation is described as lower Permian, mostly Artinskian. The numbers do not agree with the GSA's Arinskian age as the paper uses a different Time Scale. The age is derived from palynological evidence as well as other paleontological sources compiled and given an estimated age. See fig. 11
