The fossils from locality 79ADt-129 are definitely of late early or middle Callovian age as shown by the presence of Pseudocadoceras and Cadoceras. The same age is suggested for locality 79ADt-128 as shown by the presence of a fragment resembling Pseudocadoceras. A late middle Oxfordian to late Kimmeridgian age is shown by the presence of Buchia concentrica (Sowerby) at localities 79ADt-85, 79ACe-64 and 79ACe-73B. The presence of Buchia sp. at locality 79ACe-48A shows that the associated Phylloceras (Partschiceras) is not older than late middle Oxfordian. The specimen of Phylloceras (Partschiceras) at locality 79ACe-75 is identical with a species in the Naknek Formation that I am describing in an unpublished paper on Upper Jurassic ammonites from Alaska.
|
*** Brief statement of problem and remarks (from collector): The ammonites from the Shelikof Formation represent a considerable westward extendsion of the formation into an area of supposedly younger rocks. Identifications need to confirm age of units.
