Geography
Country:United States State/province:Florida County:Marion
Coordinates: 29.3° North, 82.2° West (view map)
Paleocoordinates:29.5° North, 77.3° West
Basis of coordinate:based on nearby landmark
Geographic resolution:outcrop
Time
Key time interval:Chattian - Aquitanian
Age range of interval:27.82000 - 20.44000 m.y. ago
Stratigraphy
Geological group:Hawthorn Formation:Arcadia Member:Tampa Limestone
Stratigraphic resolution:member
Stratigraphy comments: LITHOSTRATIGRAPHY: Formerly referred to as the Tampa Limestone. Scott et al. (2001) assign the Tampa to the rank of member and place it in the Arcadia Formation. AGE: Mansfield suggests age equivalencies (based primarily on faunal similarities) with the Chipola Fm., the Trent Marl of North Carolina, and the Anguilla Fm. of Anguilla. Placed here into the Chattian-Aquitanian on the basis of most recent chronostratigraphy.
Lithology and environment
Primary lithology:white lithified sandy,cherty/siliceous "limestone"
Includes fossils?Y
Lithology description: The Tampa LS member of the Arcadia Fm. is more quartz sand rich and poorer in calcium carbonate than the underlying Suwannee LS. Fossils are often preserved via silicification and can be found in fully replaced, partially replaced or unaltered states. From several localities, a buff to dirty limestone matrix is reported, speckled with quartz sand grains of medium size.
Environment:shallow subtidal indet.
Geology comments: Sand size quartz grains and an abundance of freshwater molluscs in the Tampa Limestone indicate nearshore deposition.
Taphonomy
Modes of preservation:body,cast,mold/impression,permineralized,replaced with silica
Size of fossils:mesofossils
Collection methods and comments
Collection excludes:all microfossils
Collection methods:field collection
Reason for describing collection:taxonomic analysis
Taxonomic list comments:Occurrence based data only
