CAMBRIAN (JIANGSHANIAN; SUNWAPTAN) TRILOBITES FROM THE UPPER HONEY CREEK FORMATION, WICHITA MOUNTAINS REGION, OKLAHOMA
The Upper Cambrian (Jiangshanian; Sunwaptan) Honey Creek Formation of Oklahoma is a succession of sandy limstone and minor sandstone that was deposited under shallow subtidal conditions in an achipelago of rhyolite islands.
