FAUNA OF THE SHAWNEE FORMATION (HAWORTH), THE WABAUNSEE FORMATION (PROSSER), THE COTTONWOOD LIMESTONE. BY J. W. BEEDE. Being a continuation of the foregoing lists of Rogers, published in this journal, vol. IX, No. 4, pp. 232–254.[1] The present paper deals with the fauna of the rocks, beginning at the base of what Haworth has called the “Shawnee formation”[2] and continuing upward to the top of the Cottonwood limestone. The strata are treated in ascending order. It must be borne in mind that it is the object of these papers to bring out the fauna of the rocks of the Kansas Coal Measures in sufficient detail to establish time divisions on a paleontological basis. These lists are, of course, incomplete for the horizons _in toto_, but it is hoped that they do give the characteristic fossils of the rocks of the Kansas river section in sufficient fulness to warrant some deductions of value. The fauna of the Lower Coal Measures still remains to be completed. =20.= KANWAKA SHALES (Adams MSS., by permission U. S. Geological Survey). Bennett’s description:[3] “Above the last (Oread) limestone lies a heavy shale deposit, at least ninety-seven feet thick at Lecompton. The lower sixty-five feet of this is a clay shale, then sixteen feet of arenaceous shale, then five feet of sand rock, above which lies eleven feet of sandy buff shales.” No fossils known from this horizon.
