The Dünnlenberg Bed consists of grey or brownish marl, which can be dolomitic or calcareous. It lies within the upper part of the strata rich in crinoid and shell detritus, where macrofossil-poor mud- and wackestones and intervals only rich in shell detritus gradually and diachronously replace this facies. Therefore, it may belong to either the Kienberg Member or the Liedertswil Member. Although many outcrops show several marly horizons, only the lowermost horizon, which is thicker than about 5 cm is defined as Dünnlenberg Bed (Figs. 10, 11). In northern Switzerland ceratites were only found in the Dünnlenberg Bed and in the overlying marl of the uppermost part of the Kienberg Member (see biostratigraphic discussion). In gamma-logs the Dünnlenberg Bed is characterised by a positive peak (Figs. 10, 11). While the Leutschenberg Member and the Kienberg Member are characterised by decreasing clay content (Figs. 10, 15) the Dünnlenberg Bed often represents the first significant peak. Locally mostly less pronounced peaks may occur further up (e.g. Schafisheim; Fig. 15), which may correspond to the marl- and glauconite-bearing strata overlying the Dünnlenberg Bed.

The Mergelhorizont (marl bed) III suggested by Merki (1961) as the limit between Oberer Trochitenkalk and Plattenkalk is believed by Pietsch et al. (2016) to be a time marker crossing the heterochronous, petrographically defined boundary between the Kienberg and Liedertswil Members. However, this horizon, often the lowermost in a succession of many thin shale intervals, is an excellent geophysical marker producing a distinct positive gamma-log peak. Recently named the Dünnleberg Bed (Pietsch et al. 2016), the occurrence of this marker is proved throughout Northern Switzerland.
