FIGURE 4. Biostratigraphic framework for the Brazos River K in Cephalopods from the Cretaceous-Paleogene (K-Pg) boundary interval on the Brazos River, Texas, and extinction of the ammonites

Description

FIGURE 4. Biostratigraphic framework for the Brazos River K-Pg boundary successions and correlation to magnetostratigraphy and international timescale. A. Calcareous nannofossils based on the schemes of Perch- Nielsen (1985) for the Cretaceous and Martini (1971) for the Paleogene (see Tantawy et al., 2011). M. prin = Micula prinsii; C. inter. = Cruciplacolithus intermedius. B. Planktonic foraminfera based on the CF scheme of Li and Keller (1998) for the Cretaceous and Berggren and Pearson (2005) for the Paleogene. P. hariaensis = Pseudoguembelina hariaensis; G. gansseri = Gannsserina gansseri; P. hantk. = Plummerita hantkeninoides; P. eugub. = Parvularugoglobigerina eugubina; S. triloc. = Subbotina triloculinoides. C. Dinoflagellate ranges based on Aydin (2013). P. grallator = Palynodinium grallator; T. pelagica = Thalassiphora pelagica; D. carposph. = Disphaerogena carposphaeropsis; C. corn. = Carpatella cornuta; D. calif. = Damassadinium californicum. D. Ammonites (this study). D. iris = Discoscaphites iris; D. minardi = Discoscaphites minardi. E. Lithostratigraphy (Smith and Pessagno, 1973; Yancey, 1996). Dashed lines indicate uncertainty in position/timing of boundary between range zone.
