Figure 4 in First Cretaceous teleostean otolith assemblage (Arkadelphia Formation, upper Maastrichtian) from Arkansas, USA, early Gadiformes, and the Western Interior Seaway

Figure 4. Geologic section of borings B-5, B-6, B-8, B-9, and B-10 at the Cabot site, Lonoke County, Arkansas, USA. Black shapes designate the approximate level at which otoliths were recovered (bgl m=below ground level in meters). The shape is indicative of the number of otoliths recovered at that level: circle=less than 10 specimens; triangle=11–100 specimens; rectangle=101–500 specimens; and star=greater than 500 specimens.

Figure 9. Maastrichtian otolith localities in North America and otolith-based faunal communities (bioprovinces) based on Schwarzhans and Stringer (2020a). The Western Interior Seaway community is outlined in green, and the localities are shown in green circles. The Appalachian community is outlined in red, and the localities are shown in red circles. The number in the circle is the number of species known from the localities. The white star is the Arkadelphia Formation site at Cabot, Arkansas, and the focus of this study. The base paleogeographic map was modified from Blakey (2014) and Scotese (2014).

Fig. 5 in New vertebrate microfossils expand the diversity of the chondrichthyan and actinopterygian fauna of the Maastrichtian-Danian Hornerstown Formation in New Jersey

Fig. 5. Stratigraphic occurrences of each taxon discussed in this study, with new range extensions noted in red. The range extensions shown are based on the global record of each taxon, and thus represent global temporal range extensions (i.e., they are not merely extensions in the record solely at Edelman Fossil Park). Placement and thickness of the Main Fossiliferous Layer (MFL) and "oyster layer" beneath it within the lower Hornerstown Formation are based on the findings of Voegele et al. (2021), and assignment of the dinoflagellate zones is based on Koch and Olsson (1977) and Aurisano (1989).
