Where: Eastern Cape, South Africa (33.4° S, 25.4° E: paleocoordinates 44.8° S, 11.5° W)

• coordinate based on nearby landmark

• small collection-level geographic resolution

When: Sundays River Formation (Uitenhage Group), Late/Upper Valanginian (140.2 - 136.4 Ma)

• Locality is vague. The town of Kirkwood lies on the Sundays River Formation, which is probably early Cretaceous and is predominantly paralic, thus it is unlikely to contain the theropod found at this site [???-MTC]. Jurassic-Cretaceous boundary is unknown in the area.

• bed-level stratigraphic resolution

Environment/lithology: paralic; lithology not reported

Size class: macrofossils
