SUMMARY OF MARTINEZ FAUNA 



The table given below indicates the occurrence and distribution of 

 the forms which are found in the Martinez. The local occurrence of 

 each species is given in the first major column and the range of the 

 species is indicated in the second. Three major faunal zones are 

 recognized in the Martinez : a lower, the Meretrix clalli zone ; a middle, 

 the Trochocyathus zitteli zone ; and an upper, the Solen stantoni zone. 

 The Meretrix dalli zone is typically represented in the Martinez north 

 of Mount Diablo, while the Trochocyathus zitteli and the Solen stan- 

 toni zones were first recognized at the type locality near Martinez. 

 The type locality may be regarded as the type locality of these last 

 two zones as well. The sections given above refer to their respective 

 columns in figure 5.
