Comment: | The inocerami in collections 57AG4, 67, and 101 resemble species from the lower part of the Matanuska formation and are unlike the species from the Jurassic. The single coral in collection 57AGz4 can be matched in others from the Talkeetna formation. Mesozoic corals have not been found above the Lower Jurassic in Alaska. |
