The position of each sknll is indicated by a cross ( + ), and more than thirty of these specimens were found within the area bounded by the Cheyenne River and the dotted line. The localities given are based upon field notes made by Mr. J. B. Hatcher. The fossils associated with the Ceratopsidse are mainly dinosaurs, representing one or two orders and several families. Plesiosaurs, croc- odiles, and turtles, of Cretaceous types, and many smaller reptiles, have left their remain

Plesiosaurs, croc- odiles, and turtles, of Cretaceous types, and many smaller reptiles, have left their remains in the same deposits. Numerous small mam- mals, also of ancient types, a few birds, and many fishes, are likewise entombed in this formation. Invertebrate fossils and plants are not uncommon in the same horizon.
