Where: Ruvuma, Tanzania (10.3° S, 35.2° E: paleocoordinates 53.7° S, 23.0° E)

• coordinate estimated from map

• outcrop-level geographic resolution

When: Lifua Member (Manda Beds Formation), Anisian (247.2 - 242.0 Ma)

• Lifua Member is correlated with Subzone C of the Cynognathus Assemblage Zone on the basis of shared occurrences of the dicynodont Angonisaurus and the cynodonts Diademodon and Cricodon. Subzone C of the Cynognathus Assemblage Zone is suggested to be late Anisian

• bed-level stratigraphic resolution

Environment/lithology: terrestrial; lithology not reported

Size class: macrofossils
