Where: Madhya Pradesh, India (22.6° N, 78.6° E: paleocoordinates 48.3° S, 52.1° E)

• coordinate stated in text

• Vertebrate biostratigraphy (e.g. Bandyopadhyay & Sengupta 1999. J. Afr. Earth Sciences 29:233-241) has been used to argue for an early Anisian age for the Denwa, on the basis of similarities to the fauna of the Moenkopi Formation of the USA
