Record a standard abbreviation in the database for use when names are too long for maps, sections, etc. 11o 30'S, long. Wildcat Basin, except for the NE side where it has been eroded away. Angular discordance decreases towards the centre of the basin. Bintang Formation below, Dugong Formation above.
Sequence thickens towards the palaeo-shelf margin, but thins again in the deeper water facies.
The naming of sequences, both in AGSO and elsewhere, has been based on a number of methods, most of which are inappropriate to the standards set out here. Use of the geographic parts of formally-defined lithostratigraphic names is also widespread. Ideally, only where a sequence stratigraphic unit and a litho-stratigraphic unit are identical should the geographic name also be adopted. In practise the units are often not identical, but such usage is common in the literature. An example of how current usage might be revised is set out below, using the AGSO scheme from the Browse Basin.
