siteseer Posted June 12, 2022 Share Posted June 12, 2022 On 5/29/2022 at 4:13 PM, MeargleSchmeargl said: Yeah, I'm familiar with smaller divisions. What I originally said was from the Cambrian through the Cretaceous we'd go by period, and from Cretaceous onward we'd go by Epoch, as those are the divisions in time that are most often referred to (for simplicity's sake). Yeah, the Paleocene and maybe the Oligocene might be stumbling blocks but then we can also wait a couple of days until someone comes up with a Paleocene fossil. I have a number of Paleocene and Oligocene fossils but I can't get the photos fast enough to contribute every day or two. The other option would be going with Paleogene (Paleocene, Eocene, Oligocene) representatives in the absence of a quick Paleocene example with the Eocene as an easy go-to for many of us (numerous Eocene marine sites up and down the east coast of the US, around the Gulf Coast, and terrestrial sites from the Rocky Mountain states and Canada, and of course all the Eocene sites across Europe and north Africa - spots elsewhere too).

siteseer Posted June 15, 2022 Share Posted June 15, 2022 Here's a Panthera atrox premolar in a jaw section (Late Pleistocene, tar seeps, Maricopa, Kern County, CA). P. atrox has been called "the American lion" descending from P. spelaea, the European cave lion. It's also been considered an extinct species of large jaguar. Whatever it was, it's very rare where it occurs. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Franz Bernhard Yes, I didn't think of the Permian as a stumbling block but it can be. You can find Early Permian terrestrial vertebrates from the southwest U.S. and Germany and some plants that age here and there. It's tough to get Late Permian material. Some ammonites have come out of Russia and Timor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
