Deadman Island - Upper San Pedro Series [Palos Verdes Sand] (Pleistocene of the United States)
Where: Los Angeles County, California (33.7° N, 118.3° W)
• coordinate estimated from map
• local area-level geographic resolution
When: Palos Verdes Sand Formation, Late/Upper Pleistocene (0.1 - 0.0 Ma)
• LITHOSTRATIGRAPHY: From the upper part of the San Pedro Series [=Palos Verdes Sand]: AGE: Late Pleistocene (0.125-0.08 Ma) based on current understanding of the Palos Verdes Sand. STRATIGRAPHIC RESOLUTION: List is exhaustive of the Palos Verdes Sand in a relatively small geographic area, so given stratigraphic resolution of formation.
• formation-level stratigraphic resolution
Environment/lithology: coastal; unlithified, shelly/skeletal sandstone
• ENVIRONMENT: Not stated, but based on current understanding of the units likely collected the list represents nearshore through inner shelf, siliciclastic depositional settings.
• SPECIFIC LITHOLOGY: Unknown, but based on likely collecting localities would have likely comprise sand and possibly conglomerate. LITHIFICATION: Unknown, but based on likely collecting localities would have been unlithified.
Size classes: macrofossils, mesofossils, microfossils
Preservation: original aragonite, original calcite
Collected by R. Arnold; reposited in the CAS
• COLLECTOR: Multiple collectors including R. Arnold, M. Williamson, and others. REPOSITORY: Multiple repositories including CAS and LACMIP.
