FIGURE 3. A correlated stratigraphic column representing formations in the North American Gulf Coastal Plain where Belonostomus fossils can be found. The stars represent where in the section Belonostomus fossils have been documented. The line indicates how deep into section they have been observed (modified from Scott et al., 2003).
