Definizione

Böhm Florian, Dommergues Jean-Louis, Meister Christian (1995) : Breccias of the Adnet Formation: indicators of a Mid-Liassic tectonic event in the Northern Calcareous Alps (Salzburg/Austria). Geol. Rundschau 84, 272-286

p.273: The Kehlbach Member is very similar to the Schmiedwirt Member. Characteristically it is richer in marls, echinoderms and belemnites. Thin lens-like breccias occur locally. It forms a conspicuous red intercalation in the grey basinal series of the Glasenbach gorge, but is also well exposed and easier to access at Kehlbach, with 15 m of red marly limestones (Böhm 1992:112). The Kehlbach Member is only about 2 m thick at Schmiedwirt, forming the remarkably marly top of the section. It is of Carixian age.
