Biogeographic significance of Ordovician brachiopods from Thailand and Malaysia

Early Ordovician brachiopods Spanodonta floweri (Cooper) and Aporthophyla tianjingshanensis? Fu from peninsular Thailand and the Langkawi Islands, Malaysia, and described and offer important confirmatory evidence for the Ordovician juxtaposition of the Shan-Thai terrane, the North China terrane, and Western Australia.
