Summary

Data are primarily type fossils from the USGS Menlo Park vertebrate Cenozioc Paleontology Collection created and maintained by U.S. Geological Survey (USGS). Data were collected by paleontologist Charles A. Repenning during his forty years of service within the USGS Paleontology And Stratigraphy Branch. His catalog was converted into digital form, Excel and Filemaker Pro database. The Catalog includes 516 fossil localities. Reppenning's supplementary data have been added whenever possible - including information extracted from field map locality points, Examine and Report on Referred Fossil reports with providing enhanced faunal lists, as well as formal publications. For the complete traditional dataset, please contact Kevin Mckinney [...]
