Where: Dang Valley, Nepal (28.0° N, 82.5° E: paleocoordinates 24.5° N, 83.0° E)

• coordinate stated in text

• outcrop-level geographic resolution

When: Dang Valley Formation (Siwalik Group), Late/Upper Miocene (11.6 - 5.3 Ma)

• Our correlation of the Dang Valley assemblage with the fauna of the Chinji Formation of Pakistan, therefore, suggests a basic biological similarity but does not necessarily imply temporal or stratigraphic equivalence.
