DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR TO ACCOMPANY MAP MF-ZOO7 U.S. GEOLOGICAL SURVEY FOSSIL LOCALITY MAP AND FOSSIL DATA FOR THE SOUTHEASTERN PART OF THE CHARLEY RIVER QUADRANGLE. EAST-CENTRAL ALASKA Compiled by Ronny T. Miyaoka INTRODUCTION This table and location map are compiled from fossil information collected within the Charley River A-1. A-2, A-3. 6-1, 8-2, 8-3, C-I, and C-2 1:63.360-scale quadrangles. Sources of information for the campilation are mainly published reports of the U.S. Geological Survey, as well as unpublished fieldnotes. maps. and fossil reports of USGS workers conducting geologic studies in the area. The fossil data in the table are listed chronologfcally, by collector, according to when the fossils were collected. This information includes, where available, map number. geologic map unit, collector's field number, USGS collection number, fossil list, and fossil age designation. Sources of information and names of paleontologists Hho identified fossils are keyed with superscripts and cited at the end of the table. Reports for most of the collections that have been assigned a USGS collection number are on file at the U.S. National Museum of Natural History in Washington. D.C. The fossil lists are reproduced as originally prepared by the paleontologists indicated. However, many of the older collections have been restudied by later workers, and because of improved taxonomic and stratigraphic frameworks, restudy has resulted in revised identification, correlation, and(or) age designation for many collections. Consequently, care should be taken in using the appraisals of early workers and most attention should be given to the more current reports and publications. The fossil location map is reproduced on a screened geologic base at a scale of 1:100.000. The geology and map untts are.frun Dover (in press) which contains a brlef descriptton of stratigraphic unlts. The locations of fossils collected prior to 1931 (map numbers 1-87) are only approximate due to the lack of precise location information. Although much effort went into making the fossil table and location map as complete as possible, some existing data were not available for inclusion, and some data may been omitted inadvertently. ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I am indebted to Ellen White and Sue Booth of the U.S. Geological Survey's Technical Data Unit in Menlo Park for their invaluable sssistance in recovering archival information, and to J.T. Dutro. Jr. for his editorial review which led to many important additions and improvements. REFERENCE CITED Dover.
