Section 1 - continued next page.
Fossils in section 1: - Chiefly in unit 5 -
Tenucrediz americana and associate
fauna which includes:-
Ostrea
Lunzia?
In section 2 note that the lowest
fossils include Pteris linguiformis
and Ostrea - and that Tenucrediz
fauna does not come in with
these - but just above them.
Note - so far no fossils in the
banded beds below the Tenucrediz
sand.
Suspect banded beds a facies
"shoreward" of P. linguiformis sands
but where does Tenucrediz-Helmonites
fauna fit in environmental set-up?
Where is rich marine fauna of
type area (Entry-Eagle Butte) sands
in the Bullhead region? Does it
come in to the east?
