Report on Referred Fossils
,
1969
(11/17)

|
Collections unwanted by P&S Branch to be returned to Richter. Of those collections not marked as returned at least some material has been retained for the P&S collections, and these collections will eventually receive USGS Mesozoic locality numbers. No Request for Examination of Fossils form accompanied this report, so more exact geographic information lacking at this time. |

Comment: | Partially preserved specimens. Late Triassic, as suggested on the transmittal form, is probably the best guess for the age of this assemblage. The next best guess would be Jurassic. |
