42 FLORIDA GEOLOGICAL SURVEY I3TH ANNUAL REPORT 



Genus Orbitoliiia d'Orbigny, 1847. 

 Orbitoliiia species. 



In a number of the wells a small conical species is found, 

 sometimes" in considerable numbers. This occurs at the depths 

 indicated in the following wells : Bonheur Development Company, 

 Burns, first noted at 325 feet ; New City well at Jacksonville, 820- 

 845 feet ; Ponce de Leon Well, St. Augustine, at 440 feet ; well 

 of Compagnie Generale des Phos. de la Floride, at Anthony, 160 

 feet ; well of J. Wiggins, at Eustis, 160 feet ; well of Dundee Petro- 

 leum Company, Bushnell, first occurrence noted at 890 feet, but 

 probably occurs much above this level ; City Well at Apopka. 

 115 feet; Well No. 3, Palmetto Phosphate Company, 2 3-4 

 miles northw^est of Tiger Bay, 550 feet ; and well of Florida 

 East Coast Railway at Marathon, on Key Vaca, 1,248 feet. 



This species seems very close to a species which is abundant In 

 the Eredericksburg series of the Comanchean of Texas^ which in 

 turn is very similar to a species found in the Lower Cretaceous of 

 the Pyrenees of Spain. 



Orbitoliiia sp. 



In several wells at some distance below the conical species there 

 is a much larger species, broad, low with a concave base like 

 that of O. texana and species of the Lower Cretaceous of Europe. 

 O. texana is characteristic of the Trinity series of the Comanch- 

 ean of Texas. 



It is found at the following depths in the Florida wells: Jack- 

 sonville, 900-980 feet; Bushnell, 1,000 feet, Marathon, 1,720 feet.
