| Anthony-Martin Crossroads [Tampa Limestone] | Mansfield W. C. (1937) | Hawthorn - Arcadia - Tampa Limestone | LITHOSTRATIGRAPHY: Formerly referred to as the Tampa Limestone. Scott et al. (2001) assign the Tampa to the rank of member and place it in the Arcadia Formation. AGE: Mansfield suggests age equivalencies (based primarily on faunal similarities) with the Chipola Fm., the Trent Marl of North Carolina, and the Anguilla Fm. of Anguilla. Placed here into the Chattian-Aquitanian on the basis of most recent chronostratigraphy. | "limestone" | 28.1 - 20.44 Ma Cenozoic |
