... The Cistecephalus Assemblage Zone attains maximum thickness of ~300 m in the Graaff-Reinet district, tapering westwards to 120 m in Teekloof Pass (south of Fraserburg) and eastwards the zone thins to an estimated 100 m in the Fort Beaufort area ( Smith and Keyser, 1995 ). Northwards the zone appears to get thinner...

Society of South Africa SACS (1980) subdivided the lower Beaufort (Adelaide Subgroup) into formations and made a distinction between a western Abrahamskraal Formation and an eastern Koonap Formation in the lowermost part of the succession ( Johnson et al., 2006 , Figure 3 ). The Abrahamskraal...

... the Karoo region of inland South Africa. By 1906, Broom had formulated his own, more precise biostratigraphic division of the fossiliferous horizons of the Beaufort Group; in his scheme Seeley’s ‘zone of Dicynodonts’ was split into the upper Kistecephalus [sic] Beds and the lower Endothiodon Beds...

The fossil wood was evidently reworked from Permo-Triassic Beaufort strata and incorporated in Tertiary fluvial debris-flow deposits which were subsequently silcretized.
