We present the result of morphostratigraphic analysis and geological field observation to identify the distribution of scoria flow deposit related to the caldera-forming eruption of Lautan Pasir caldera as the youngest caldera in Bromo-Tengger caldera complex. Morphostratigraphic analysis derived from digital elevation model and volcanic stratigraphy shows that products of Lautan Pasir caldera-forming eruption(s) mainly distributed to the north filled up the Sapikerep valley, and further to the north formed Sukapura distal fan. While to the south, it filled the valley between Ijo and Old Semeru. Field observation in the deeply dissected part of Sapikerep valley found two massive pyroclastic flow deposits separated by lava flow. Above the lava flow is scoria rich pyroclastic flow deposit typical of Lautan Pasir caldera-forming eruptions. Below the lava flow is scoria poor pyroclastic deposit of older products, most likely, of Ngadisari caldera. The distribution of Ngadisari caldera-forming eruption products is very limited considering the following massive volcanism of Lautan Pasir caldera. This outcrop might provide the key information to further reconstruct the volcanism stage of Bromo-Tengger caldera complex
