Environmental drivers shape freshwater alpha-diversities. The Khorat Group in northeasternThailand is a succession of five continental formations ranging from the Middle? Jurassic with thelower part of the Phu Kradung to the Aptian with the Khok Kruat Formation. In order to identifyecological traits of the palaeocenoses, we focus here on biological and taphonomical features ratherthan on the sedimentological context of each assemblage. The major distinction that can be made inthe succession of bony fi sh assemblages within the Khorat Group is between the Late Jurassic basalCretaceous Phu Kradung Formation on the one hand and the Early Cretaceous Sao Khua and KhokKruat formations on the other hand.
