ANGELS PEAK CENSUS

Previous

The total number of specimens for each member (species or genus) of the faunule is tabulated in the list on the page facing, page 7. For the purposes of this list, census, a few of the isolated teeth have been counted as jaws. They were so counted whenever they seemed to be representative of separate, individual animals.

The census-count includes all of the specimens that were identified. The numbers in parentheses, on page 7, refer to those individuals that were found outside of the 100 linear yards or so of outcrop comprising the principal area of concentration of specimens.
