Eocene paleontology and geology of western North America

Abstract: Western North America preserves a rich record of Eocene life and environments under globally warm climates, and represents an interval where significant coal and other minerals were deposited. The Eocene is of interest to biologists and paleontologists for its record of the appearance and rise to dominance of many plant, insect, and mammal groups now typical of the temperate forests of North America, admixed with groups now well represented in tropical areas or restricted to eastern Asia. This record is also o… Show more

“…Megaflora remains from the Allenby Formation in the Princeton area were first reported by Dawson (1890) and Penhallow (1908), and remain under study (Greenwood et al 2016a(Greenwood et al , 2016bPigg and DeVore 2016). Fossils discovered in outcrop and in mine tailings in the Princeton Basin include compression fossils of plants in shales and coals (e.g., Thomas Ranch; Dillhoff et al 2013;Greenwood et al 2016a).…”
