Abstract
Subsurface Neogene Biostratigraphy of Bay County, Florida
Murlene Wiggs Clark, Ramil C. Wright (1)
ABSTRACT
A microfossil-rich subsurface unit in the Neogene of the Florida panhandle offers the opportunity to tie this area into the world-wide geochronologic time scale. The planktic foraminifera of the Intracoastal limestone (an informally named lithostratigraphic unit) range in age from the late middle Miocene (Globorotalia foshi zones of Bolli) to the late Pliocene (Globoquadrina altispira-Globorotalia multicamerata zones of Berggren). The biostratigraphic sequence is not complete; the late Miocene zones are missing. A late Miocene regression, beginning sometime during or after the deposition of the Globorotalia menardii zone and lasting until the early part of the Pliocene, occurred throughout the area of study.
