This collection consists of Western Interior Upper Cretaceous ammonites and Inoceramids fossils with stratigraphic and spatial data largely from the Rocky Mountain region of North America. Data is primarily type fossils from the USGS Denver Mesozoic Invertebrate Catalog created and maintained by U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) that as of March 2020 has been transferred to the Smithsonian National Museum of Natural History. Samples collected by paleontologist William A. Cobban during his sixty years of service within the USGS Paleontology And Stratigraphy Branch and Geologic Mapping Team. Approximately 14,595 fossil localities are represented in this collection. In a career that spanned almost 75 years, Cobban fundamentally...

This digital data release contains geospatial geologic data compiled for the Lamar 250k quadrangle, a region in eastern Colorado and western Kansas, which is predominantly covered by Quaternary deposits that overlay Cretaceous bedrock. Geologic data, compiled from published sources, include the location and characteristics of geologic contacts and faults, mapped geologic polygons, and ammonite fossils. The geologic database includes spatial feature classes that collectively contain the geologic information that are presented in the previously published map plate. The spatial data are accompanied by non-spatial tables that describe the sources of geologic information, a description of geologic map units, a glossary...
