 ==Usage==
 Specify parameters as instructed below.  {{{name}}} will default to the name of the page if unspecified.  {{{period}}} should specify the main period in which the unit lies; this will colour the taxobox according to the international standard period colours.  If {{{age}}} is unspecified, then the value of {{{period}}} will also be used to illustrate the unit's stratigraphic range.
