Marine Triassic faunas of North America: Their significance for assessing plate and terrane movements

Abstract: ZusammenfassungDie Verbreitung der marinen Invertebratenfaunen der Trias Nordamerikas wird im Hinblick auf Aussagen zur Pal~olatitude durchgesehen.Marine Trias gibt es auf der Nordamerikanischen Platte fiber 46 Breitengrade von Californien bis naeh Ellesmere Island. Fiir einige Zeitabsctmitte lassen sich zwei bis drei untersdaiedliche Faunenprovinzen gegeneinander abgrenzen. Die Unterschiede in den Fannen sind offensichtlich an die Pal'~olatitude gekniipft. Sic werden als LPL, MPL, HPL (niedere, mittlere, h6he… Show more

“…It rests, unconformably in most areas, upon carbonate or mixed siliciclastic-carbonate strata of Carboniferous to Permian age [15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22]. The succession was deposited in a west-facing, arcuate extensional basin on the western margin of Pangaea [23][24][25][26][27]. The Montney Formation consists of siltstone, very fine-grained sandstone, bioclastic packstone/grainstone (coquina, in Alberta) [19,20], interlaminated, interbedded, dolomitic silty-sandstone [12][13][14]22] and shale.…”
