Text Appearing Before Image:
CERATOPS BEDS. 207 This geological horizon is a distinct one in the upper Cretaceous, and is indicated for more than 800 miles along the eastern flank of the Bocky Mountains. It is marked at nearly every outcrop by remains of these reptiles, and hence the strata containing them have been called the Ceratops beds. They are freshwater or brackish deposits which form a part of the so-called Laramie, but are below the uppermost beds referred to that group. In some places, at least, they rest upon marine beds, which contain invertebrate fossils characteristic of the Fox Hills deposits. The most important localities in the Ceratops beds are in Wyoming, especially in Converse County.
Text Appearing After Image:
Fig. 53.—Hap of Conver.se County, Wyoming; showing localities where skulls of the Ceratopsidas have been discovered. The position of each sknll is indicated by a cross ( + ), and more than thirty of these specimens were found within the area bounded by the Cheyenne River and the dotted line. The localities given are based upon field notes made by Mr. J. B. Hatcher. The fossils associated with the Ceratopsidse are mainly dinosaurs, representing one or two orders and several families. Plesiosaurs, croc- odiles, and turtles, of Cretaceous types, and many smaller reptiles, have left their remains in the same deposits. Numerous small mam- mals, also of ancient types, a few birds, and many fishes, are likewise entombed in this formation. Invertebrate fossils and plants are not uncommon in the same horizon.
