The age assigned to the Kinney Brick Quarry (early-middle Virgilian) has long been based more on its inferred lithostratigraphic position than on biostratigraphic indicators at the quarry. We have developed three datasets —-stratigraphic position, fusulinids and conodonts— that in- dicate the Kinney Brick Quarry is older, of middle Missourian (Kasimovian) age.

Williams III, Editor William H. Howe, Assistant Editor EDITORIAL OFFICE Southwest Natural History Institute 1819 Meadowview Drive NW Albuquerque, New Mexico 87104-2511 ([email protected]) Reporting Observations: All individuals interested in birds in New Mexico are encouraged to submit their observations to NMOS Field Notes. Especially solicited are records of uncommon species, nesting birds, and early, late, or out-of-season/range birds. Records should be submitted in taxonomic order and should include species name, date, exact location, numbers of birds, age, sex, and color morph (if applicable), and name and contact information of observer. Details are necessary for unusual records; these may be submitted on a report form (available from the address above), but any written format is acceptable. Photographic documentation is strongly encouraged. NEW MEXICO ORNITHOLOGICAL SOCIETY (Founded 1962) The New Mexico Ornithological Society was organized to gather and disseminate accurate information concerning the bird life of New Mexico; to promote interest in and appreciation of the value of birds, both aesthetic and economic, to further effective conservation of the state’s avifauna; to facilitate opportunity for acquaintance and fellowship among those interested in birds and nature; and to issue publications as a means of furthering these ends. Membership and Subscriptions: Membership in the New Mexico Ornithological Society is open to anyone with an interest in birds.

Allen May, 2000 Description of Map Units to Accompany Geologic Map of the Edgewood 7.5’ Quadrangle Bruce D. Allen May, 2000 Quaternary Map Units General Surficial deposits in the map area consist of upland-valley and piedmont alluvium and colluvium derived from weathering of shale, limestone, and sandstone of the Pennsylvanian Madera Group. Sediment transport is towards the east and the topographically closed Estancia basin (Fig. 1). West-to-east drainage is diverted on the western side of the map area by a north-to-south-trending bedrock ridge. Drainage across this ridge occurs through a gap located near Interstate Highway 40. Drainage from the eastern side of the bedrock upland flows onto the piedmont of the northern Estancia basin. Downcutting and an overall basinward shift in deposition on the piedmont have resulted in a stepped sequence of surficial deposits that are generalized on the map to include an older unit that caps the highest interfluvial summits (Qp2), and younger inset fills (Qp3-4 and Qa). The large, north-to-south trending valley on the western edge of the map area contains a complex of erosional surfaces and inset fills, reflecting the overall downcutting that has occurred on the piedmont to the east. Surficial deposits in this area are mapped together with valley-fill deposits in bedrock uplands as a single, undifferentiated unit (Qva). Absolute ages for Quaternary map units on the Edgewood quadrangle are not available. Relative ages for piedmont alluvial units are indicated by inset relationships.
