Taxonomic list

• USGS D-1781 is at the same level but USGS D-1558 is not and actually is in the Schankler-Wing section
"635 m" level given by Bown and Rose 1987 is somewhat mysterious because D-1473 is clearly in the 15 Mile Creek field area and is specifically assigned to the 556 m level in Bown's section by Bown et al. 1994
