Toridus. This fauna appears to be about 100-150 feet
above the Mininiffian base at least 175 feet thin.
How much thicker is not known. The fact that I
got it Spirifaina spinsa leads me to think that
the Monas fauna is here and especially below
the strata collected in.
From just over 700 feet higher we got small specimens
of Fusulinia that may be F. lecalica, large Spirula
coneratus (common), Springforna (C.), and Compsita
suffulta. Here the list are considerably short.
Probably 100 feet higher Morganas got me
M. coneratus, Dalgeriana, and Steptaphendus
Lillianus. Our no Orthotichia morganiana.
Base was still more Penn. to the N. E.
There may be 2-300 feet of Toronado here, which
includes Chin.-Penn. There appears to be no
Permian here.
To the N.W. of Brimkelman maybe seen the
lower beds, and if one gets the Devonian is due.
This in the Martin list of Ravome (Ray Folio)
that he says is 325' thick.
East of the Toronado line, all in lava to the
Drifting Spring part of which we near to the W. side
To the E. of the track are the Mercal Mat dipping.
