  abstract = {{T}his paper reports new paleomagnetic and geochronologic data from a similar to 1500m thick composite section belonging to the {D}rakensberg group, the thickest remnant of the {K}aroo lavas in {N}orthern {L}esotho. {F}low-by-flow analysis of paleomagnetic directions reveals 21 magnetic directional groups, corresponding to single eruptive events, and 16 individual lava flows. {T}he new age determinations of lava flows range from 180.1 +/- 1.4 to 182.8 +/- 2.6 {M}a. {T}hese data, combined with previous results, allow us to propose that the main part of the {D}rakensberg group and the {K}aroo intrusive complex dated around 181-183 {M}a may have been erupted over a period as short as 250 kyr and may have coincided with the two main phases of extinction in the {E}arly {T}oarcian. {T}his scenario agrees well with the discontinuous rhythm of environmental and biotic perturbations in the {L}ate {P}liensbachian-{T}oarcian interval.},
