only one had a few D. nicolletii's. Also, sparingly present in these layers
are small (up to 0.8") flat-ovoid
limestone cones with whitish
patina and some "vermicular"
markings on outside. One small
ovoid cone with part of one
nicolleti and a concretization
living chamber of one of the
big nodosus-type cephalites, was
found. No hard blue is D. nic cones
without jackets.
2) The Peanut-Brittle concretion
layer is present but very
sparingly fossiliferous. The cones
are distinctively orange-brown-
weathering, ovoid, and break up
to angular chunks stained OB
and purple-brown. Some have one
or two Limopsis scattered about,
and about one in 20 is a
typical Limopsis-packed cone.
The layer is very helpful in
locating in section.
3) No Gervillii cones seen in
any of the exposures though a
few G's occur locally with the PB.
4) Nothing seen in place between
PB's and Protocardia cones
