Upper Cretaceous Planktonic Foraminifera from the Putah Creek Subsurface Section along the Yolo-Solano County Line, California
The Upper Cretaceous planktonic Foraminifera from the Putah Creek subsurface section are described, and six local concurrent-range zones are proposed on the basis of their stratigraphic distributions. The subsurface section of the Upper Cretaceous along the Putah Creek on the Yolo-Solano County line...
