Notes on the Geology of Carrizo Mountain and Vicinity, San Diego County, Cal.

Abstract

Through the courtesy of Dr. J. C. Merriam, of the University of California, and Dr. Stephen Bowers, of Los Angeles, small collections of fossil corals and mollusks from the vicinity of Carrizo Mountain, San Diego County, Cal., were sent to Dr. T. Wayland Vaughan and Dr. Ralph Arnold,2 of the U.S. Geological Survey, during the autumn of 1903. The material in these collections proved to be of exceptional interest to the paleontologists, and in order that a larger amount might be obtained for study and more definite information secured about the geology of the region, Dr. Bowers and the writer visited the field during the latter part of January, 1904.
