The Winslow Formation was a geologic formation in Arkansas, now abandoned and replaced by the Atoka Formation, the Hartshorne Formation, and the lower McAlester Formation (previously Spadra Shale [2] ). [3] [4] It preserves fossils dating back to the Carboniferous period.
The Bull Fork Formation is a geologic formation in north central Kentucky and southwestern Ohio. It preserves fossils dating back to the Ordovician period.
The Maxville Limestone is a geologic formation in Ohio. It preserves fossils dating back to the Carboniferous period.
The Morrow Group was a geologic group in Arkansas that is now abandoned and replaced by the Bloyd Formation and the Hale Formation. It preserves fossils dating back to the Pennsylvanian period.
The Hindsville Formation, or Hindsville Limestone Member of the Batesville Formation, is a geologic unit in northern Arkansas and eastern Oklahoma that dates to the Chesterian Series of the late Mississippian. Named for the town of Hindsville in Madison County, Arkansas, this unit is recognized as a member of the Batesville Formation in Arkansas and a geologic formation in Oklahoma. Although, some workers have proposed raising the rank of this interval in Arkansas to formation status. Both the Batesville and Hindsville Formations overlie the Moorefield Formation and underlie the Fayetteville Shale.
The Imo Formation, or Imo Shale, is a geologic unit in northern Arkansas that dates to the Chesterian Series of the late Mississippian. The Imo is considered to be a member of the upper Pitkin Formation, and is the most recent Mississippian age rock in Arkansas. The Imo Shale unconformably underlies the Pennsylvanian age Hale Formation
The Moorefield Formation, or Moorefield Shale, is a geologic formation in northern Arkansas and eastern Oklahoma that dates to the Meramecian Series of the middle Mississippian. In Arkansas, this formation is generally recognized to have one member, the Ruddell Shale, in the upper Moorefield Formation.
The Bloyd Formation, or Bloyd Shale, is a geologic formation in Arkansas. It preserves fossils dating back to the Carboniferous period.
The Arkadelphia Marl, also called the Arkadelphia Formation, is a geologic formation in Arkansas in Clark, Nevada, and Hempstead counties. It preserves fossils dating back to the late Maastrichtian stage of the Cretaceous period.
The Nacatoch Formation is a geologic formation in Arkansas, USA. It preserves fossils dating back to the Cretaceous period.
