The marly limestones of the formation were deposited in a subtidal lagoonal environment. The formation overlies the Bouleiceras and Spiriferina beds of the early Toarcian and has been correlated to the Marrat Formation of Saudi Arabia. Fossils of the marine crocodylian Steneosaurus as well as bivalves and the ammonite Nejdia have been found in the formation.[1][2] The name Kandreho Formation was proposed by Geiger in 2004.[3] {{clearleft}}See also{{Portal|Geology|Paleontology|Jurassic|Madagascar|Prehistory of Africa}}
