Where: Changwat Nakhon Si Thammarat, Thailand (8.2° N, 99.7° E: paleocoordinates 8.1° N, 111.2° E)
• coordinate based on nearby landmark
• outcrop-level geographic resolution
When: Middle Jurassic (174.7 - 161.5 Ma)
• a good section exposes alternating grey and brown clays and limestone beds. According to M. Feist (Montpellier), charophytes from that locality (including Porochara sublaevis) suggest a Middle Jurassic age
• group of beds-level stratigraphic resolution
Environment/lithology: lacustrine - large; brown, gray claystone and limestone
Size class: macrofossils
Collected in 1993, 1994, 1996
Collection methods: surface (float), surface (in situ),
• The Mab Ching locality was discovered by L. Raksaskulwong in 1993. Field work there in 1993, 1994 and 1996 yielded abundant vertebrate remains
•The specimens studied in this paper are housed in the collection of the Geological Survey Division, Department of Mineral Resources (DMR), Bangkok, Thailand.
