Where: Kelantan, Malaysia (4.8° N, 101.8° E: paleocoordinates 27.4° S, 108.5° E)
• coordinate based on nearby landmark
• outcrop-level geographic resolution
When: Wordian (266.9 - 264.3 Ma)
• Fossils come from an 'olistostrome unit' overlain by the Gua Musang Formation.
•Age given as 'Middle Permian' but close comparison made with the fauna of Sungai Cheroh (Collection No. 111186) so a Wordian age seems likely.
• member-level stratigraphic resolution
Environment/lithology: marine; siliciclastic sediments
Size class: macrofossils
