Report on Referred Fossils
Edit Reference Add/Edit Sample Sample List Show Map
Stratigraphic range: Lower Permian
Kinds of fossils: Marine invertebrates
Quadrangle or area: McCarthy quad.
Shipment No.: A-73-3
Referred by: MacKevett, E. M., Jr.
Report prepared by: Dutro, J. Thomas, Jr.
Date: 02/02/1973

This report covers 6 collections from the McCarthy C-3 quadrangle. One collection contains possible fusulinids (USGS 23559-PC) and 2 collections with corals were sent to C.L. Rowett for study.

The brachiopods are early Permian forms but are not abundant enough to make as positive a correlation as those in Shipment A-73-2. The first 3 collections, however, come from essentially the same locality as 72JP-1 which provides better material for age assignment.

The material is being retained.
