Huai Huat, SN1 (Cretaceous of Thailand)

Also known as Sakhan Nakhan site 1/S.N.1

Where: Sakhan Nakhan, Thailand (17.0° N, 104.3° E: paleocoordinates 15.7° N, 112.3° E)

• coordinate estimated from map

• outcrop-level geographic resolution

When: Sao Khua Formation (Khorat Group), Late/Upper Barremian (130.0 - 125.5 Ma)

• Stratigraphy comments: Sao Khua Fm. was originally believed to be Early Cretaceous in age based on the vertebrate fossils by Buffetaut and Suteethorn (1999). More recently, the age has been constrained to the late Barremian based on non-marine bivalves by Tumpeesawan et al. (2010).

• bed-level stratigraphic resolution

Environment/lithology: terrestrial; red claystone

• "red claystone"

Size classes: macrofossils, mesofossils

Collected in 1992
