Geography
Country: | United States | State/province: | Florida | County: | Leon |
Coordinates: | 30.4° North, 84.6° West (view map) | ||||
Paleocoordinates: | 30.5° North, 84.0° West | ||||
Basis of coordinate: | based on nearby landmark | ||||
Geographic resolution: | outcrop |
Time
Period: | Neogene | Epoch: | Pliocene |
Stage: | Piacenzian | 10 m.y. bin: | Cenozoic 6 |
Key time interval: | Late/Upper Pliocene | ||
Age range of interval: | 3.60000 - 2.58000 m.y. ago |
Stratigraphy
Geological group: | Alum Bluff | Formation: | Jackson Bluff | ||
Stratigraphic resolution: | group of beds | ||||
Stratigraphy comments: Fossils from the upper part of the marl and directly beneath the unfossiliferous surface material. Cancellaria Zone of Choctawhatchee Formation, Alum Bluff Group. The Cancellaria zone is in the highest fossiliferous beds along Harveys Creel. The total thickness of this zone is 25-30 ft. Late Miocene age based on recent lithostratigraphy. Local section name = Jackson Bluff, Basinal/regional section name = Leon. Placed in Jackson Bluff Fm (and hence Late Pliocene) by enterer. |
Lithology and environment
Primary lithology: | fine,coarse,shelly/skeletal unlithified argillaceous sandstone |
Includes fossils? | Y |
Lithology description: The sediments comprising the Cancellaria Zone consist of a fine to coarse grained clayey sand containing many fossils. Lithification data not reported, but all figured specimens appear to be free of matrix so an unlithified classification is assigned. | |
Environment: | coastal indet. |
Geology comments: No reported geologic or paleoenvironmental data. Probably shallow water siliciclastic depositional environment. |
Taphonomy
Modes of preservation: | body |
Size of fossils: | macrofossils |
Collection methods and comments
Collection methods: | field collection |
Reason for describing collection: | taxonomic analysis |
Museum repositories: | USNM |
Collection method comments: Specimens are lodged in USNM collections. Collected by Florida Geological Survey (1927) | |
Taxonomic list comments:Probably exhaustive for Mollusca. Certainly good nomenclatural treatment. |
