Syn-Eruptive Taphoflora From The Agua De La Zorra Formation (Upper Triassic) Cuyana Basin, Mendoza, Argentina

ABSTRACT In the North of Mendoza Province, at Paramillos de Uspallata locality, Triassic sedimentary rocks outcrop. These Triassic beds are grouped in four formations: Paramillos, Agua de la Zorra, Portezuelo Bayo and Los Colorados. The Agua de la Zorra Formation is characterized by deposition in a...

Plant remains were systematically collected and compared with taphofloras from other Triassic formations of the Cuyana Basin.
