PERMIAN VERTEBRATE FOSSILS IN TEXAS 741 



Fossils: Trimerorhachis sp., Eryops sp., Empedias sp. 



Headquarters. — The first headquarters established by Harrold 

 Brothers for their extensive ranch was on the north side of the North 

 Fork of the Little Wichita River, a mile or two from the mouth of 

 Kickapoo Creek, a tributary of the North Fork from the south side. 

 Some of Cope's fossils were taken from this locality. 



Corn Hill. — Corn Hill, formerly called Tit Mountain, is No. 31 

 of our section and is about a mile north of Dundee, and is higher in the 

 formation than the beds at Mount Barry. 



Fossils: Trimerorhachis bilobatus, T. sp., Dimetrodon incisivus, 

 D. macros pondylus, D. longiramus 



God-will's Creek. — A tributary of the Little Wichita River from the 

 south side. It runs from a southwestward direction nearly on the 

 strike of the beds, having its source in the limestone hills of the 

 Clear Fork Division ten miles away. From its mouth to the crossing 

 of the road from Archer City to Seymour there is quite a bodv of 

 "bad lands." Several specimens of Cope's fossils were taken from 

 this place. About one-half mile east of the crossing of the Archer 

 and Seymour road is Dr. C. A. White's Godwin Creek invertebrate 

 locality. About two miles up the creek, on the south side above the 

 road crossing, is the locality from which the fossil iiora was taken 

 described by Dr. I. C. White as coming from Godwin's Creek. 

 The Antelope locality in the same paper is Carboniferous. 



Fossils : Diadectis sp., Empedias fissus, Dimetrodon platycentrus 



Hackherry Creek. — This is a small tributary of the Little Wichita 

 river, about three miles southeast of Fulda. It is one of Mr. Stern- 

 berg's localities. 



Fossils: Eryops sp., Diadectes sp. 



Deep Red Run. — There was at one time a small fort called Fort 

 Auger on the north side of Red River about opposite where the town 

 of Iowa Park is now located. There was a road leading from Fort 

 Auger to Fort Sill. Near the crossing of Deep Red Creek by this old 

 road is the locality at which I collected the vertebrates in Cope's 

 collection labelled "Indian Territory." The horizon is about the 

 same as that of Corn Hill. 



Fossils: Cricotus hypantricus, Dimetrodon gigas, D. macro- 

 spondylus, D. dollovianus, D. platycentrus, Naosaurus cruciger
