Geological magazine : Vol. 131 Iss. 1-6 Year. 1994Summary: Two temnospondyl intercentra from non-marine middle Jurassic rocks at Mab Ching, in the southern peninsula of Thailand, are the first remains of post-Triassic labyrinthodont amphibians to be reported from the Shan-Thai block. They closely resemble an intercentrum recently reported from the middle Jurassic of the Khorat Plateau of northeastern Thailand, which is part of the Indochina block. Although the Mab Ching specimens are too fragmentary to warrant a precise identification, they confirm that temnospondyl amphibians were widespread on the various Asian continental blocks in the Jurassic.
