		In Ecuador, Volcan Mojanda, previously thought to be a single edifice, consists of two contemporaneous volcanoes, Mojanda and Fuya Fuya.
		This cone was partly destroyed by phreatoplinian eruptions that led to the formation of a small, summit caldera.Fuya Fuya grew on the western flank of basal Mojanda and was contemporaneous with Mojanda II.
		This avalanche (unit FF IV) was accompanied by voluminous pyroclastic flows and was followed by the construction of a dacitic dome complex (FF V) within the avalanche caldera.Both the Fuya Fuya and Mojanda magmatic suites show adakitic characteristics.
