Fig. 4 | Key stages in plate tectonic history of Madagascar. a, Position of Madagascar before rifting between West Gondwana (South America and Africa) and East Gondwana (Madagascar,Seychelles,Indian subcontinent, Sri Lanka,Antarctica and Australia) at 183 Myr ago (Early Jurassic epoch). b, Separation of Indo-Madagascar from Antarctica and Australia at 124 Myr ago (mid-Early Cretaceous epoch).c, Separation of Indian subcontinent from Madagascar at 88 Myr ago (mid-Late Cretaceous epoch).d, Approximate time of deposition of Maevarano Formation at 66 Myr ago (latest Cretaceous period).Solid black lines indicate current coastlines of Madagascar and east Africa; brown represents Precambrian terranes;and yellow indicates sedimentary basins along west coast of Madagascar.The discovery site of UA 9030 is indicated by red star in d.
