    Soft-sediment ichnotaxa from the Cenozoic White Limestone Group, Jamaica, West Indies (2004)
    In:  Scripta Geologica (03757587) vol.127 (2004) p.341
    Details
    Publication Date: 2007-01-19
    Description: Jamaica, the third largest of the Greater Antillean islands, exposes various lithological units that are dominated by Cenozoic carbonate rocks including those of the mid-Cenozoic White Limestone Group. This Group is comprised of six formations, the Troy, Swanswick, Somerset, Moneague, Montpelier and Pelleu Island formations. An uncommon but moderately diverse, poorly to moderately preserved softsediment ichnofauna is described herein from several of these, namely the Moneague, Montpelier and Pelleu Island formations, which have yielded 15 ichnogenera represented by 27 ichnospecies. These are: Bergaueria hemispherica? Crimes, Legg, Marcos & Arboleya; Chondrites furcatus Sternberg; Chondrites isp.; Circulichnus montanus Vialov; Dactyloidites ottoi (Geinitz); Dactyloidites peniculus D’Alessandro & Bromley; Diplocraterion isp. cf. D. parallelum Torell; Glockerichnus parvula (Ksia˛z · kiewicz); Helminthopsis hieroglyphica Wetzel & Bromley; Ophiomorpha nodosa Lundgren; Palaeophycus herberti (Saporta); Palaeophycus tubularis Hall; Palaeophycus isp.; Planolites beverleyensis (Billings); Planolites montanus Richter; Planolites isp.; Schaubcylindrichnus coronus Frey & Howard; Scolicia prisca Quatrefages; Scolicia strozzii Savi & Meneghini; Taenidium cameronensis (Brady); Taenidium serpentinum Heer; cf. Taenidium barretti (Bradshaw); Thalassinoides horizontalis Myrow; Thalassinoides paradoxicus (Woodward); Thalassinoides isp.; Trichichnus linearis Frey; and Trichichnus simplex Fillion & Pickerill. Various processes such as dolomitization, lack of bedding plane surfaces, lack of contrasting lithologies precluding toponomic preservation, case hardening and chertification may, individually or in combination, be responsible for the variable ichnofaunal diversity within and between the various formations of the White Limestone Group.

    Systematic ichnology of microborings from the Cenozoic White Limestone Group, Jamaica, West Indies (2007)
    In:  Scripta Geologica vol. 134, pp. 77-108
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-01-12
    Description: The Middle Eocene to Middle Miocene White Limestone Group of Jamaica contains a common and diverse, poorly to well-preserved microboring ichnofauna, namely Centrichnus eccentricus Bromley & Martinell, Curvichnus pediformis isp. nov., Dendrorete balani Tavernier, Campbell & Golubic, Dipatulichnus rotundus Nielsen & Nielsen, Entobia volzi Bromley & D\xe2\x80\x99Alessandro, Entobia isp. cf. E. ovula Bromley & D\xe2\x80\x99Alessandro, Entobia isp. forms A and B, Fossichnus solus Nielsen, Nielsen & Bromley, Maeandropolydora elegans Bromley & D\xe2\x80\x99Alessandro, Maeandropolydora sulcans Voigt, Oichnus asperus Nielsen & Nielsen, Oichnus excavatus Donovan & Jagt, Oichnus gradatus Nielsen & Nielsen, Oichnus ovalis Bromley, Oichnus paraboloides Bromley, Oichnus simplex Bromley, Oichnus isp., Planobola microgota Schmidt, Podichnus centrifugalis Bromley & Surlyk, Ramosulcichnus biforans Hillmer & Schulz, Reticulina elegans Radtke, Scolecia filosa Radtke, Scolecia maeandria Radtke, Stellatichnus radiatus Nielsen & Nielsen, Trypanites fimbriatus (Stephenson), Trypanites solitarius (Hagenow), Trypanites weisei M\xc3\xa4gdefrau, and one example each of an unnamed crescent-shaped and a sub-horizontal to undulatory boring. These ichnospecies are distributed within three formations, the Somerset, Moneague and Montpelier formations, of the White Limestone Group. The majority of these microborings are preserved in the foraminifers Lepidocylina spp. within the Somerset Formation.

    Crustaceans of the upper Miocene August Town Formation of southeastern Jamaica (2010)
    In:  Scripta Geologica. Special Issue vol. 7, pp. 177-183
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-01-12
    Description: Crustaceans remain poorly known from the Miocene of Jamaica. Herein, we report three species from the upper Miocene August Town Formation of Fowl House Spring, parish of St. Thomas, southeast Jamaica; poorly preserved propodi of a mud shrimp, \xe2\x80\x9cCallianassa\xe2\x80\x9d sp.; the anterior part of the carapace of Mithraculus sp. aff. Mithraculus coryphe (Herbst); and the cirripede Tetraclita sp. cf. T. stalactifera (Lamarck). Mithraculus sp. aff. M. coryphe at Fowl House Spring considerably extends the stratigraphic occurrence of the genus in the Antillean region down into the Miocene. Hitherto, fossil T. stalactifera in the Caribbean was known from the Plio-Pleistocene of Cura\xc3\xa7ao and the Pleistocene of Venezuela.
