Specimens that are compared with Micromitra sculptilis occur at the following locaHty: Middle Cambrian: (541) About 2,950 feet ( m.) above the Brigham quartzite and 1,225 feet ( m.) below the Upper Cambrian in the limestone forming le of the Bloomington formation fWalcott, 1908f, p. 194], in Blacksmith Pork Canyon, about 10 miles ( km.) east of Hyrum, Cache County, Utah.
