    Preliminary Note on a Small Ornithopod Dinosaur from the Phu Kradung Formation (Terminal Jurassic – Basal Cretaceous) of Phu Noi, North-Eastern Thailand

    Original Preliminary note on a small ornithopod dinosaur from the Phu Kradung Formation (terminal Jurassic – basal Cretaceous) of Phu Noi, north-eastern Thailand Eric Buffetaut1*, Suravech Suteethorn2, Varavudh Suteethorn2, Uthumporn Deesri2, Haiyan Tong2 Received: 30 July 2013; Accepted: 15 October 2013 Abstract The lower jaw of a small ornithopod from Phu Noi, a rich fossil locality in the lower part of the Phu Kradung Formation (terminal Jurassic - basal Cretaceous) of Kalasin Province, north-eastern Thailand, is briefl y described. This the best ornithopod specimen hitherto recovered from the Phu Kradung Formation and it shows a combination of characters suggesting that it belongs to a new taxon. Keywords: Ornithopoda, mandible, Phu Kradung Formation, Late Jurassic, Thailand Introduction abundant and diverse vertebrate fauna, comprising The Phu Kradung Formation of north-eastern Thailand hybodont sharks5, bony fishes6, turtles, teleosaurid contains abundant dinosaur remains, among which crocodilians, sauropods (including mamenchisaurids), mamenchisaurid sauropods are especially well represented1. theropods7 (including sinraptorids) and pterosaurs. Sinraptorid theropods have also been found2. Few The age of the Phu Kradung Formation is still ornithischian remains have hitherto been reported from the relatively uncertain. It was long considered as Late Phu Kradung Formation. They include a stegosaur vertebra3 Jurassic, but on the basis of palynological evidence Racey and a femur of a small ornithopod4. In the present preliminary and Goodall(2009)8 consider that most of it belongs to the paper, we report the discovery of a new specimen from Early Cretaceous, with the lower part possibly being Late the Phu Noi fossil locality, which provides important Jurassic. The Phu Kradung Formation probably covers new evidence about the small ornithopods from the Phu a relatively long time span and in all likelihood the fossil Kradung Formation.

Most of the abundant sauropod material from the Sao Khua Formation (Early Cretaceous), collected on the Khorat Plateau, in northeastern Thailand, is referable to this species. Phuwiangosaurus is a middle-sized sauropod, which is clearly different from the Jurassic Chinese sauropods (Euhelopodidae). On the basis of a few jaw elements and teeth, P. sirindhornae may be considered as an early representative of the family Nemegtosauridae. Key words : Sauropoda, Osteology, Early Cretaceous, Thailand Description du type et du matériel rapporté de Phuwiangosaurus sirindhornae Martin, Buffetaut et Suteethorn, 1994, un sauropode du Crétacé inférieur de Thaïlande Résumé : Le spécimen type de Phuwiangosaurus sirindhornae est un squelette incomplet, partiellement articulé, découvert dans la région de Phu Wiang (Nord-Est de la Thaïlande). Phuwiangosaurus est un sauropode de taille moyenne (15 à 20 m de longueur) très différent des sauropodes du Jurassique chinois. La majeure partie de l’abondant matériel de sauropodes, récolté sur le Plateau de Khorat (Formation Sao Khua, Crétacé inférieur), est rap - portée à cette espèce.

Ungual morphology has been used recently to argue for the coexistence of two distinct ornithomimosaurs, a basal taxon and distinctly more derived taxon, in the Early Cretaceous Arundel Clay of Maryland, USA. However, these conclusions are based on misconceptions of the morphology and positional variability of ornithomimosaur unguals. Some characters previously cited as diagnostic of ornithomimosaur unguals are not actually observed in this clade, or are more homoplastically distributed among theropods. Other characters proposed to distinguish between the two pedal ungual morphs in the Arundel Clay material are shown in the Albertan ornithomimid material to consistently distinguish the dif- ferent ungual positions within the pes of one individual. Claims of multiple distinct ornithomimosaur taxa in the Arundel Clay are premature, as the two pedal ungual morphotypes more likely represent positional variation in a single taxon. INTRODUCTION itional variation in a complete set of unguals from a single pes of the ornithomimid Aepyornithomimus tugrikinensis The ornithomimosaur pes is regarded as an important was described and figured.

    First Evidence of a Mamenchisaurid Dinosaur from the Upper Jurassic-Lower Cretaceous Phu Kradung Formation of Thailand

    First evidence of a mamenchisaurid dinosaur from the Upper Jurassic-Lower Cretaceous Phu Kradung Formation of Thailand Suravech Suteethorn, Jean Le Loeuff, Eric Buffetaut, Varavudh Suteethorn, and Kamonrak Wongko Acta Palaeontologica Polonica 58 (3), 2012: 459-469 doi: http://dx.doi.org/10.4202/app.2009.0155 An isolated posterior cervical vertebra of a sauropod discovered at Phu Dan Ma (Kalasin Province, northeastern Thailand) is the first informative postcranial specimen from the Phu Kradung Formation, a Upper Jurassic to Lower Cretaceous continental unit. The vertebra is referred to the family Mamenchisauridae, otherwise mainly known from China. In addition, spatulate teeth from the same formation and a mid−dorsal vertebra from the Upper Jurassic Khlong Min Formation of southern Thailand are reassigned to this family. The occurrence of mamenchisaurids in the earliest Cretaceous of Thailand supports a hypothesis of geographical isolation of Central, Eastern, and Southeast Asia during the Late Jurassic. It also suggests that the main changes in their dinosaur assemblages occurred during the Early Cretaceous, rather than at the Jurassic–Cretaceous boundary. Key words: Dinosauria, Mamenchisauridae, Jurassic, Cretaceous, Thailand.

SERENO Department of Organismal Biology and Anatomy and Committee on Evolutionary Biology, University of Chicago, 1027 East 57th Street, Chicago, Illinois, 60637, U.S.A. [email protected] Abstract . A new genus and species of ornithomimosaur, Afromimus tenerensis , is described based on a fragmentary skeleton from the Lower Cretaceous (Aptian–Albian) El Rhaz Formation of Niger. The holotype and only known individual preserves caudal vertebrae, chevrons and por - tions of the right hind limb. Derived ornithomimosaurian features include the broad, peanut-shaped articular surfaces of mid caudal centra, parasagittal fossae on mid caudal centra for reception of the postzygapophyses of the preceding vertebra, and a raised, subtriangular platform on the ventral aspect of the pedal phalanges.

    WORKSHOP ON STRATIGRAPHIC CORRELATION OF THAILAND AND MALAYSIA Haad Yai, Thailand 8-10 Septdber, 1983 REVIEW OF THE CONTINENTAL MESOZOIC STRATIGRAPHY OF THAILAND Nares Sattayarak Mineral Fuels Division Department of Mineral Resources Bangkok 10400, Thailand IRTRODUCTIOH The continental Mesozoic redbeds are widely distributed throughout the country, especially in the Khorat Plateau, from which the group's name was obtained. The rocks are predominantly red clastic, i.e. , sandstone, silt­ stone, claystone, shale and conglomerate. The Khorat Group rests. uncon­ formably on older rocks, generally of Paleozoic age, but occasionally it overlies the Permo-Triassic igneous rocks and/or Lower to Middle Triassic sedimentary rocks. The Khorat Group was previously reviewed in Thai by Nakornsri (1975) and in English by Kulasing ( 1975) and Ramingwong ( 1978) • This paper is an attempt to update the knowledge so far reported about the Khorat rocks and their equivalents. REVIEW OF PREVIOUS WORKS Lee (1923) was the first geologist who noted the non-marine Mesozoic rocks in the Khorat Plateau and divided them into Upper and Lower Group, the Triassic age was given. Brown et al. ( 1953) named the IChorat Series to represent the conti­ nental redbeds and the marine Triassic limestone of northern Thailand. The sequence consists of interbedded sandstone, conglomerate, shale and marly limestone. No fossil was found except some petrified wood. La Moreaux et al. (1956) divided the Khorat Series, following Chali­ chan and Bunnag ( 1954) , into three members and assigned the age of this sequence to the Triassic period. Their subdivision are as follows: Phu Kradung Member is the oldest member it lies unconformably on Paleozoic rocks.

    (Crocodylomorpha: Neosuchia): Implications for the Rise of Eusuchia

    Zoological Journal of the Linnean Society, 2016, 177, 854–936. With 11 figures Evolutionary relationships and systematics of Atoposauridae (Crocodylomorpha: Neosuchia): implications for the rise of Eusuchia JONATHAN P. TENNANT1*, PHILIP D. MANNION1 and PAUL UPCHURCH2 1Department of Earth Science and Engineering, Imperial College London, South Kensington, London SW7 2AZ, UK 2Department of Earth Sciences, University College London, Gower Street, London WC1E 6BT, UK Received 18 August 2015; revised 5 January 2016; accepted for publication 19 January 2016 Atoposaurids are a group of small-bodied, extinct crocodyliforms, regarded as an important component of Jurassic and Cretaceous Laurasian semi-aquatic ecosystems. Despite the group being known for over 150 years, the taxonomic composition of Atoposauridae and its position within Crocodyliformes are unresolved. Uncertainty revolves around their placement within Neosuchia, in which they have been found to occupy a range of positions from the most basal neosuchian clade to more crownward eusuchians. This problem stems from a lack of adequate taxonomic treatment of specimens assigned to Atoposauridae, and key taxa such as Theriosuchus have become taxonomic ‘waste baskets’. Here, we incorporate all putative atoposaurid species into a new phylogenetic data matrix comprising 24 taxa scored for 329 characters. Many of our characters are heavily revised or novel to this study, and several ingroup taxa have never previously been included in a phylogenetic analysis. Parsimony and Bayesian approaches both recover Atoposauridae as a basal clade within Neosuchia, more stemward than coelognathosuchians, bernissartiids, and paralligatorids. Atoposauridae is a much more exclusive clade than previously recognized, comprising just three genera (Alligatorellus, Alligatorium, and Atoposaurus) that were restricted to the Late Jurassic of western Europe, and went extinct at the Jurassic/Cretaceous boundary.

    Chapter Ii Literature Review

    CHAPTER II LITERATURE REVIEW 2.1 Introduction This chapter is comprised of literature review of geology and petroleum geology in northeastern Thailand. The related knowledges are categorized into groups including general geology, stratigraphy, basin evalution, structural framework, petroleum provinces, petroleum prospect in Permian basin play, seismic interpretation of the Chonnabot prospect, subsurface structural map of the Permian play, petroleum geochemistry evaluation of Permian carbonate rock, carbonate reservoir characterization, and seal and trap rock characterization. 2.2 General geology The northeastern region of Thailand is located between latitudes 14o to 19o North and longitudes 101o to 106o East, covering an area abount one third of the country or abount 200,000 square kilometers. The northern and eastern border is bounded by the Lao People’s Democratic Republic (Laos) and the Mekong river. The southern part is connected to the Democratic Kamphuchea and the western part is bounded by certral and northern of Thailand. The Khorat Plateau forms a part of the Indochina plate bounded by major Tertiary strike-slip faults. Althought several tectonic models indicate that the Khorat Plateau is largely underformed. It contains two fold belts; the N-S trending Loei- Phetchabun foldfold beltbelt inin thethe western western area area and and NW-SE NW-SE trending trending Phu Phu Phan Phan range range in inthe the 8 central part which divided the central plain in the northern Sakhon Nakhon basin, and the southern Khorat basin. General geology of the area and the sedimentary sequence consists of an initial rift sequence of Carboniferous to Triassic sediments and a sag sequence of Late Triassic to Cretaceous sediments that consisted of Khorat Group which is mainly sedimentary subsequence (Figure 2.1).
