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: Highest fossiliferous upper Miocene bed. 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, Basinal/regional section name = Leon. Cancellaria Zone of Choctawhatchee Formation, Alum Bluff Group. 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 T.W. Vaughan (1900) and W.C. Mansfield (1925) | |
| Taxonomic list comments:Probably exhaustive for Mollusca. Certainly good nomenclatural treatment. | |
