Materials and Methods One hundred and ninety-five samples from the Lower Bor- der Group and equivalent strata were processed for con- odonts using standard recovery techniques (Austin, 1987). Most samples were taken from the Lower Border Group in its type area (Text-Fig. 4). Samples were selected to maxi- mize yield and stratigraphic coverage, but also to represent the broad range of carbonate facies encountered. Almost 5000 conodont elements wer
