Abstract/Notes | AbstractPreviously undescribed collections of ammonites from the Corsicana Formation (Maastrichtian), the highest unit of the Cretaceous present in northeast Texas, U.S.A., include Eubaculites carinatus (Morton, 1834), Nostoceras (Nostoceras) major sp. nov., Glyptoxoceras sp., and Jeletzkytes sp. nov., which are new records for the unit. Other ammonites are Sphenodiscus lobatus (Tuomey, 1854), S. pleurisepta (Conrad, 1857), Trachyscaphites yorkensis (Stephenson, 1941), Discoscaphites conradi (Morton, 1834) and Baculites columna (Morton, 1834). Elements of the fauna are present in the Escondido Formation in Trans-Pecos Texas and northern Mexico, the Prairie Bluff Chalk in Alabama and Mississippi, the Owl Creek Formation in Mississippi, Tennessee and Missouri, and the Severn Formation in Maryland. In the U.S. Western Interior they occur in the Hoploscaphites nicolleti Zone, in the Fox Hills Formation. |
