1945 M. F. Glaessner Princ. Micropalaeontol. viii. 215 Comparison between rock facies on which geological mapping depends, and bio-facies which is revealed by the distribution of fossils, makes it often possible to recognize true time-stratigraphic relations.
2003 S. S. Beus in S. S. Beus & M. Morales Grand Canyon Geol. (ed. 2) vii. 114 The few known fossils—crinoids, corals, stromatoporoids, and conodonts typical of nearshore biofacies..—indicate accumulation in shallow, subtidal, open marine conditions.
