Arizona, July 31-1912. Wednesday.
Spent the day in Rock Glen and Guy Dale's again.
In the Rock Glen at 24 feet below the Encinal Limestone came upon a bed of open sea Platyceras that infest Arthracantha, The oinnids had all gone into debris but the pedipods were wonderfully prolific. Associated I saw Cyrtina hamiltoni; lamington D. mucronata and Johnchusillus stempensis.
The section in Rock Glen is as follows:-
Upper layer of water face
A. vittata Limestone
Thin zone of limestone above the shale
Blue shale,
D. mucronata gone.
Coal gone - 3 feet
Coal Limestone, 20 inches
Blue soft shale n clay.
24 feet from the Platyceras disappears bed at bottom of Rock Glen,
Same shale down to Guy Dale's at dam,
About 25 feet.
