Open publisher page 54 citations

Abstract

Cenozoic deposits in many areas of Arizona. Few of those fossil vertebrates have been adequately studied and described. Our purpose is to record the occurrence of Cenozoic vertebrates in Arizona. We hope this study will stimulate further research on the complex Cenozoic history of Arizona. Lance (1960) summarized the Cenozoic record of vertebrate localities in Arizona. He noted the absence of fossil vertebrates from the late Cretaceous to the early Miocene. The record is now extended back from the
