Abstract

Upper Paleozoic sedimentary rocks are widely distributed and probably more fully represented in the Peruvian Andes than in other parts of South America. A reconnaissance study of these rocks and their fossils reported here supplies new and important information on late Paleozoic history of the western part of South America.
