  • Eocursor

    Records Eocursor's reassignment from the lower to the upper Elliot Formation.

  • Geranosaurus

    Dates the Clarens to a mainly Pliensbachian age on detrital zircons.

  • Heterodontosaurus

    Dates the upper Elliot Formation, source of SAM-PK-K1332, to the Hettangian–Sinemurian and the Clarens to a mainly Pliensbachian age.
