Where: Khon Kaen, Thailand (16.7° N, 102.3° E: paleocoordinates 14.2° N, 111.0° E)
• coordinate based on nearby landmark
• outcrop-level geographic resolution

•
•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).
