Abstract

Recognition of paleobiogeographic provinces is an important tool for paleogeographic reconstruction. The exercise described here has students compare in quantitative terms the fossils from ten localities and objectively define provinces, regions, and realms. These paleobiogeographic relationships are then used to reconstruct the drift histories of the three continents on which the ten localities occur.
