  • Two New Crinoids from Lower Mississippian Rocks in Southeastern Kentucky
    TWO NEW CRINOIDS FROM LOWER MISSISSIPPIAN ROCKS IN SOUTHEASTERN KENTUCKY BY GEORGE M. EHLERS AND ROBERT V. KESLING Reprinted from JOURNAL OF PALEONTOLOGY Val. 37, No. 5, September, 1963 JOURNALOF PALEONTOLOGY,V. 37, NO. 5, P. 1028-1041, PLS. 133,134, 3 TEXT-FIGS., SEPTEMBER,1963 TWO NEW CRINOIDS FROM L20\'C7ERMISSISSIPPIAN ROCKS IN SOUTHEASTERN KENTUCKY GEORGE M. EHLERS AKD ROBERT V. ICESLING Museum of Paleontology, The University of Michigan .~BsTR.~~T-AII~~~~specimens collected many years ago bl- the senior author and his students near Mill Springs, Kentucky, are a new species of Agaricocrinzis and a new speries of Actino- crinites. Although only one specimen of each is known, it is well preserved. The new Agnrico- crinus bears a resemblance to A. ponderoszts Wood, and the new Actinocriniles to four species described by Miller & Gurley: A. spergenensis, A. botuztosz~s,A. gibsoni, and A. shnronensis. A preliminary survey of species assigned to Agaricocrinz~ssuggests that revision of the genus is overdue. Although the occurrence of the specimens leaves some doubt as to their stratigraphic posi- tion, we conclude that they both probably weathered from the Fort Payne formation and rolled down the slope onto the New Providence, where they were found. The sites where the crinoids were picked up are now deeply inundated by water impounded by the Wolf Creek dam on the Cumberland River. INTRODUCTION onto the New Providence, \$here they were OTH of the new crinoids described here are found. rZt present, both the New Providence B from Lower Mississippian rocks in the valley formation and the I~asalbeds of the Fort Payne of the Cumberland River in Wayne and Russell are underwater at the type locality of the new Counties, Kentucky.

    Mineral Resources of the Illinois Basin in the Context of Basin Evolution St. Louis, Missouri, January 22-23,1992 Program and Abstracts Edited by Martin B. Goldhaber and J. James Eidel U.S. Geological Survey Open-File Report 92-1 This report is preliminary and has not been edited or reviewed for conformity with U.S. Geological Survey, Illinois State Geological Survey, Kentucky Geological Survey, Missouri Division of Geology and Land Survey, and Indiana Geological Survey standards. PREFACE The mineral resources of the U.S. midcontinent were instrumental to the development of the U.S. economy. Mineral resources are an important and essential component of the current economy and will continue to play a vital role in the future. Mineral resources provide essential raw materials for the goods consumed by industry and the public. To assess the availability of mineral resources and contribute to the abib'ty to locate and define mineral resources, the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) has undertaken two programs in cooperation with the State Geological Surveys in the midcontinent region. In 1975, under the Conterminous U.S. Mineral Assessment Program (CUSMAP) work began on the Rolla 1° X 2° Quadrangle at a scale of 1:250,000 and was continued in the adjacent Springfield, Harrison, Joplin, and Paducah quadrangles across southern Missouri, Kansas, Illinois, Arkansas, and Oklahoma. Public meetings were held in 1981 to present results from the Rolla CUSMAP and in 1985 for the Springfield CUSMAP. In 1984, the Midcontinent Strategic and Critical Minerals Project (SCMP) was initiated by the USGS and the State Geological Surveys of 16 states to map and compile data at 1:1,000,000 scale and conduct related topical studies for the area from latitude 36° to 46° N.

Abstract.—Myriapods are one of the dominant terrestrial arthropod groups including the diverse and familiar centipedes and millipedes. Although molecular evidence has shown that Myriapoda is monophyletic, its internal phylogeny remains contentious and understudied, especially when compared to those of Chelicerata and Hexapoda. Until now, efforts have focused on taxon sampling (e.g., by including a handful of genes in many species) or on maximizing matrix occupancy (e.g., by including hundreds or thousands of genes in just a few species), but a phylogeny maximizing sampling at both levels remains elusive. In this study, we analyzed forty Illumina transcriptomes representing three myriapod classes (Diplopoda, Chilopoda and Symphyla); twenty-five transcriptomes were newly sequenced to maximize representation at the ordinal level in Diplopoda and at the family level in Chilopoda.

    Proceedings of the Indiana Academy of Science 1 05 (1997) Volume 106 p. 105-111 DISTRIBUTION OF LIMESTONE IN THE BRAZIL FORMATION (PENNSYLVANIAN) IN THE SUBSURFACE OF SOUTHWESTERN INDIANA AND WESTERN KENTUCKY John B. Droste and Alan S. Horowitz Department of Geological Sciences Indiana University 1005 East 10th Street Bloomington, Indiana 47405 ABSTRACT. Electric logs and samples of well cuttings indicate the existence of limestone bodies in the lower and middle Brazil Formation of southwest- ern Indiana and western Kentucky. The limestone bodies are elongated north- east-southwest, are as much as 60 feet thick, are as much as 3 miles in length, are interpreted to have formed on slight elevations on the sea floor, and were accumulated contemporaneously with adjacent terrigenous muds and sands until they were finally smothered by these terrigenous sediments. KEYWORDS: Brazil Formation, limestone, Pennsylvanian, subsurface south- western Indiana, subsurface western Kentucky. INTRODUCTION The Brazil Formation in Indiana lies below the Staunton Formation and above the Mansfield Formation in the Raccoon Creek Group (Figure 1). In the type area (Brazil, Clay County, Indiana), the Brazil includes rocks from the base of the Lower Block Coal Member to the top of the Minshall Coal Member (Hutchi- son, 1976). The Upper Block Coal Member is the only other named member of the Brazil Formation. The Brazil coals have irregular distributions along the out- crop and very limited distributions in the subsurface. Because the Minshall coal is of limited extent, the stratigraphic position of the base of the more widespread Perth Limestone Member, or of the sandstone that replaces it, was used in an earlier subsurface study (Droste and Horowitz, 1995) to mark the top of the Brazil.
