Kladognathus mehli and Spathognathodus camphelli, the two species limited to shale, w^ere each represented in this study by less than four specimens, these from a single lo- cality. The four species found only in lime- stone probably reflect the method of sam- pling rather than environmental factors. Zones particularly productive of conodonts were resampled in quantity, and, because of the greater abundance of conodonts in limestone than in shale, a disproportion- ately high percentage of specimens are SOUTHEAST Limestone, gray, medium-grained, crinoidol, cross-bedded. 3'6" I Shale, gray and tan, fossiliferous, calcareous, slightly sandy. 4'6" M:: Covered.
