Also known as FS 106 C (Level 23) and FS 92.129 A (Level 26B)

Where: Jefferson County, Florida (30.2° N, 84.0° W: paleocoordinates 30.2° N, 83.8° W)

When: Pleistocene (2.6 - 0.0 Ma)

Environment/lithology: pond; unlithified, fine-grained, calcareous sandstone and peat

Size class: macrofossils

Collected in 1991-1993; reposited in the FLMNH

Collection methods: bulk,

• From text:

•We first sorted the taxa from each field season and cataloged them in the computerized system of the Florida Museum of Natural History collection of fossil vertebrates.

•

•The two late Pleistocene localities that were most productive of fossil vertebrates were Levels 23 and 26 B in Test F. On October 30, 1992 toward the end of a very productive season, we took relatively large bulk samples from an area in which Levels 23 and 26 B both seemed unusually fossiliferous. The field number for the sample from Level 23 is FS 106 C. It weighed 3.04 kg after it was washed through 1/4 in. screen and dried. For Level 26 B the field number was FS 92.129 A and the bulk sample weighed 3.44 kg. In each case less than 10% of the bulk sample (fine sand and clay) washed through the screen. The material was then picked and sorted into four simple categories and weighed.
