FIGURE 1. Map of study area showing modern and historical geographic terminology along with geographic position of type section of Turtle Bluff Member, Bridger Formation (modified after Murphey [2001]). The light purple shading represents areas on the lower slopes of the principal mountain landforms and the green shading represents areas above the base of the uppermost slopes for each landform (approximate elevations in feet are shown). Insert map shows location of study area in state of Wyoming.
FIGURE 2. Schematic stratigraphic column of type section of Turtle Bluff Member on southwest flank of Cedar Mountain, Bridger Formation, showing relative stratigraphic positions of SDSNH, DMNH and UCM localities (along with the locality names in parentheses) that yielded the fossils described in this paper (modified and corrected after Gunnell et al., [2009]). Locality MPM 2970 occurs on southwest flank of Sage Creek Mountain and its approximate relative stratigraphic position is projected onto type section. Abbreviations are: Lithostr., lithostratigraphic; NALMA, North American Land Mammal age.
