“…Late Devonian conodonts of northwest Thailand have been described previously by several workers, including Wongwanich and Burrett (1984), Burrett et al (1986), Savage et al (2006), Königshof et al (2012), and Savage (2013). This paper concentrates on a small but important Frasnian interval 80 cm thick that extends through the Upper Palmatolepis rhenana Biozone, the Lower Palmatolepis rhenana Biozone, the Palmatolepis linguiformis Biozone, the Frasnian-Famennian global extinction event, and into the beginning of the Palmatolepis triangularis Biozone.…”

The biofacies of the Lower Palmatolepis rhenana Biozone to Palmatolepis triangularis Biozone in the Mae Sariang section, northwestern Thailand, are marked by alternations of Palmatolepis-dominated biofacies and Polygnathus-dominated biofacies related to fluctuations in seawater depth. Fine-grained limestone accumulated through the Lower Palmatolepis rhenana Biozone, Upper Palmatolepis rhenana Biozone, Palmatolepis linguiformis Biozone, Palmatolepis subperlobata Biozone, and Palmatolepis triangularis Biozone. A regression in the Upper rhenana Zone was followed by a recovery transgression that extended up through the linguiformis Zone. Conodont faunas increased until near the end of the linguiformis Zone, but in the overlying subperlobata Zone and triangularis Zone, conodont numbers dropped and most conodont species disappeared. It is possible the event coincides with a glacially forced regression, but there is no evidence of this in the section apart from a positive spike in δ13C. Another possible cause of the global marine extinction event is toxic levels of metals resulting from widespread volcanism. New taxa in this paper are Palmatolepis chaemensis new species, Palmatolepis thamensis new species, and Polygnathus tenellus surinensis new subspecies.UUID: http://zoobank.org/f2b55ba8-fe49-46f6-a2d5-bfd0208f1460

“…Age determination for this fossil assemblage is Ordovician to Carboniferous age. Burrett et al, (1986) studied a Silurian-Devonian carbonate sequence (Mae Ping Formation) at Tat Sador and Ko Luong waterfalls, Mae Ping National, Northern Thailand. Thickness of this formation is 220 m. The lower of this formation, approximately 50 m thick, is composed of thinly to medium-bedded limestone with nautiloids and conodonts.…”

The purposes of this study are to establish the detail lithology, stratigraphy, lithofacies and systematic paleontology of marine Silurian-Devonian sedimentary rocks of the Thong Pha Phum Group in Ban Tha Kraden, Si Sawat District, Kanchanaburi Province, and�to interpret and reconstruct its depositional environment. The Thong Pha Phum Group is well exposed in the study area. It consists mainly of shale, siltstone, sandstone, limestone, argillaceous limestone, calcareous shale, calcareous mudstone, and laminated mudstone with the many fossils such as graptolites, tentaculites, ostracods, brachiopods, nautiloids and trilobites. These strata are conformably underlain by the Thung Song Group (Ordovician age) and are conformably overlain by the Khuan Klang Formation (Early Carboniferous age). Abundant tentaculites were recognized and they consist of 7 species belonging to 3 genera: Nowakia acuaria, Nowakia (Cepanowakia) pumilio, Styliolina fissurella, Styliolina clavulus, Styliolina sp. A, Homoctenus tikhyi, and Homoctenus arctus indicating Early to Late Devonian age. In addition, graptolites (Monograptus sp. and Diplograptus sp.) were found in this area and they indicate probably Silurian? to Early Devonian. Based on the lithology, lithofacies, sedimentary structure, and fossils contains, they suggest that the Thong Pha Phum Group was deposited on the slope environment to deep marine basin in low energy conditions.
