Geography
| Country: | United States | State/province: | Florida | County: | Leon |
| Coordinates: | 30.4° North, 84.6° West (view map) | ||||
| Paleocoordinates: | 30.5° North, 83.9° 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: 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 = Harveys Creek, 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 Mansfield (1925) | |
| Taxonomic list comments:Probably exhaustive for Mollusca. Certainly good nomenclatural treatment. | |
