Summarized here are new U-Pb detrital zircon ages (N=1186) from the modern Jemez, Rio Puerco, and Rio Salado drainages along the western margin of the Rio Grande Rift in the Santa Domingo, Albuquerque, and Socorro basins in central and southern New Mexico. The Jemez River is the furthest upstream locality in this study and records peak ages at 1725, 1686, 1441, 1089, 223, 165, 87, and 36 Ma.

  • Stegosaurian Footprints from the Morrison Formation of Utah and Their Implications for Interpreting Other Ornithischian Tracks Gerard D
    Stegosaurian footprints from the Morrison Formation of Utah and their implications for interpreting other ornithischian tracks Gerard D. Gierliński and Karol Sabath Polish Geological Institute, Rakowiecka 4, 00-975 Warsaw, Poland. e-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT - The supposed stegosaurian track Deltapodus Whyte & Romano, 1994 (Middle Jurassic of England) is sauro- pod-like, elongate and plantigrade, but many blunt-toed, digitigrade, large ornithopod-like footprints (including pedal print cast associated with the manus of Stegopodus Lockley & Hunt, 1998) from the Upper Jurassic of Utah, better fit the stego- saurian foot pattern. The Morrison Formation of Utah yielded other tracks fitting the dryomorph (camptosaur) foot pattern (Dinehichnus Lockley et al., 1998) much better than Stegopodus. If the Stegopodus pedal specimen (we propose to shift the emphasis from the manus to the pes in the revised diagnosis of this ichnotaxon) and similar ichnites are proper stegosaur foot- prints, Deltapodus must have been left by another thyreophoran trackmaker. Other Deltapodus-like (possibly ankylosaurian) tracks include Navahopus Baird,1980 and Apulosauripus Nicosia et al., 1999. Heel-dominated, short-toed forms within the Navahopus-Deltapodus-Apulosauripus plexus differ from the gracile, relatively long-toed Tetrapodosaurus Sternberg, 1932, traditionally regarded as an ankylosaurian track. Thus, the original interpretation of the latter as a ceratopsian track might be correct, supporting early (Aptian) appearance of ceratopsians in North America. Isolated pedal ichnites from the Morrison Formation (with a single tentatively associated manus print, and another one from Poland) and the only known trackways with similar footprints (Upper Jurassic of Asturias, Spain) imply bipedal gait of their trackmakers. Thus, problems with stegosaur tracks possibly stem from the expectation of their quadrupedality.

Annual NMGS Fall Field Conference Guidebooks Every fall since 1950, the New Mexico Geological Society (NMGS) has held an annual Fall Field Conference that explores some region of New Mexico (or surrounding states). Always well attended, these conferences provide a guidebook to participants. Besides detailed road logs, the guidebooks contain many well written, edited, and peer-reviewed geoscience papers. These books have set the national standard for geologic guidebooks and are an essential geologic reference for anyone working in or around New Mexico. Free Downloads NMGS has decided to make peer-reviewed papers from our Fall Field Conference guidebooks available for free download. Non-members will have access to guidebook papers two years after publication. Members have access to all papers. This is in keeping with our mission of promoting interest, research, and cooperation regarding geology in New Mexico. However, guidebook sales represent a significant proportion of our operating budget. Therefore, only research papers are available for download. Road logs, mini-papers, maps, stratigraphic charts, and other selected content are available only in the printed guidebooks.

  • The Species Scaphites Bituberculatus SANTAMARIA-ZABALA, 1992
    acta geologica polonica Vol. 46, No. 1-2, pp. 89-98 Warszawa 1996 DFG-Soh_rpunkt BIOGENE SEDIMENTATION MARKUS WILMSEN & FRANK WIESE The species Scaphites bituberculatus SANTAMARIA-ZABALA, 1992 (Cretaceous Ammonoidea) from the Upper Cenomanian of Tagle (Cantabria, northern Spain): geologic setting, paleontology, and strati graphic position ABSTRACT: The heteromorphic ammonite Scaphites bituberculatus SANTAMARIA-ZABALA, 1992, is described from an Upper Cenomanian (geslinianum Zone) succession near the vil­ lage of Tagle (Cantabria, northern Spain). Its second proof in Spain seems to confirm the validity of this possibly endemic species. Additionally, the lithology and microfacies as well as the bio- and sequence stratigraphy of the fmd interval are described. INTRODUCTION Though scaphitid ammonites are known to occur commonly in Upper Cretaceous strata in Spain, especially in the Campanian (WIEDMANN 1962, 1978; MARTINEZ 1982; KCJCHLER & KUTZ 1989; WIESE & al., this volume), the record of mid-Cretaceous scaphitids in literature is poor. Compared with the vast amounts of ammonites collected the last decades by workers such as the late Jost WIEDMANN, even the number of documented Scaphites species is low and it appears that the genus was in fact extreme­ ly rare in Spain. Only one fragment of Scaphites cf. obliquus (SOWERBY) was figured by SANTAMARIA-ZABALA (1992, p. 233, PI. 2, Fig. 11) from the Upper Cenomanian of Ganuza, Navarra. From the Santander area (Liencres, comp. Text-fig. 1), Worthoceras vermiculus (SHUMARD) and Scaphites peroni (PERVINQuffiRE) were figured by WIESE & WILMSEN (1995, PI. 1, Figs 5 and 8) from a mid-Cenomanian hardground. In the 90 M. WILMSEN & F. WIESE Turonian, where heteromorphic ammonites showed peak: endemism (WIEDMANN 1979, KLINGER & WIEDMANN 1983), only Scaphites geinitzi (D'ORBIGNY) (see SANTAMARIA-ZABALA 1992, p.
