Tad Huai Nam Yai tracksite (Triassic of Thailand)

Also known as Nam Nao

Where: Phetchabun, Thailand (16.8° N, 101.8° E: paleocoordinates 20.4° N, 91.1° E)

• coordinate based on nearby landmark

• outcrop-level geographic resolution

When: Huai Hin Lat Formation (Kuchinari Group), Norian (228.0 - 208.5 Ma)

• Palynomophs contain the formation to Carnian-Norian (Racey & Goodall 2009. Geol. Soc. Lond. Spec. Publ. 315: 69-83), whereas a Norian age is suggested by plant, ostracod and vertebrate remains (e.g. Buffetaut 1983. APP 28: 43-53)

• bed-level stratigraphic resolution

Environment/lithology: terrestrial; sandstone

Size class: macrofossils

Preservation: mold/impression, trace

Collected in 2003

Collection methods: surface (in situ),
