Furnari的早更新世断层平面，在西西里东北部（意大利南部）露头，为大型珊瑚群落的定居和生长提供了主要的硬基质。尽管珊瑚没有形成框架，但它们影响了底栖生物群落的组成和分布。珊瑚和相关的动物产生有机碎屑，这些碎屑沿着断层崖、在其裂缝内或在其底部沉积。
The Early Pleistocene fault plane of Furnari, that outcrops in northeastern Sicily (southern Italy), provided a primary hard substrate for the settling and growth of large coral colonies. Even though the corals did not form frameworks, they influenced the composition and distribution of the benthic communities. Corals and associated fauna produced organogenic debris, which was deposited along the fault scarp, within its fractures or at its base.
