Reptile species include: three glyptosaurine lizards, an emydid turtle, two trionychid turtles, a crocodylid, and an alligatorid. Mammal species include: five carnivorans, three perissodactyls, seven condylarths, four artiodactyls and two notharctine primates, among other less well represented taxa. The lower two assemblages are dominated by aquatic reptiles while the upper assemblage is dominated by mammals and lizards. Each assemblage contains characteristic Lysitean (Wa6) elements, but the probable occurrences of the condylarth Ectocion superstes in the middle horizon and the brontotheriid perissodactyl Lambdotherium in the upper horizon would indicate a Lostcabinian (Wa7) age for the upper part of the Wasatch Formation in Fossil Basin and, perhaps, the overlying Fossil Butte Member of the Green River Formation as well. 2002 Denver Annual Meeting (October 27-30, 2002)

SOCIETY OF VERTEBRATE PALEONTOLOGY (1994) The fossil record of vertebrates unequivocally supports the hypothesis that vertebrates have evolved through time, from their first records in the early Paleozoic Era about 500 million years ago to the great diversity we see in the world today. The hypothesis has been strengthened by so many independent observations of fossil sequences that it has come to be regarded as a confirmed fact, as certain as the drift of continents through time or the lawful operation of gravity.

SOCIETY OF VERTEBRATE PALEONTOLOGY (1986) Be it resolved , that the Society of Vertebrate Paleontology opposes the teaching of so­called "creation science" or "scientific creationism" as a viable alternative to evolutionary explanations of the origin and history of the earth and of life, on the grounds that "creation science" or "scientific creationism" is in its essentials a body of religious doctrines rather than an embodiment of scientific process. Be it further resolved , that the officers of the Society of Vertebrate Paleontology are hereby authorized to investigate the feasibility of associating the Society with one of the briefs of amicus curiae in the Louisiana creationism case now pending before the United States Supreme Court; and that, if feasible, the Society of Vertebrate Paleontology formally associate itself with such a brief opposing the teaching of "scientific creationism" as science.

Recent Progress in Vertebrate Paleontology W. D. Matthew Science to the controversy that has raged around the famous Piltdown skull. Dr. Miller analyzes with care the evidence for and against the association of the skull fragments with the lower jaw and compares the latter with a large series of chimpanzee jaws in the National Museum. He comes to the conclusion that the jaw is in every respect within the limits of individual variation of the chimpanzees, and displays no distinctively human characters, while the skull fragments display in every particular the characters of the genus Homo . Not only is there an entire lack of blending of these two distinct types of skull, but in such parts as should show coordinated characters and adjustment of one to the other, such conformity is wholly lacking. not simply a jaw similar in adaptive specialization to that of an ape, it is a jaw identical with that of the chimpanzee in every particular. The skull is not merely similar in brain-case to that of man, it is the skull of Homo Equus and claw-phalanges agreeing in all respects with Mylodon , it would not be reasonably possible that they could belong to a single animal, no matter what arguments of association and distribution were adduced to support such a conclusion.

MENU LEB Home Page Herbarium Herpetology Malacology ... Entomology Vertebrate Paleobiology The Vertebrate Paleobiology collections concentrate on Southwestern Pleistocene fossils, primarily from New Mexican cave faunas, although small numbers of other fossils are held. As of July 1998, more than 35,300 lots (over 70,000 individual specimens) were in the computerized catalogue. This catalogue includes specimens for which the Laboratory (LEB) acts as repository, both permanent and temporary. The LEB currently is repository for large numbers of specimens from lands of the Bureau of Land Management, New Mexico State Land Office, and sites under the jurisdiction of the Department of Defense. The primary focus is upon late Pleistocene Southwestern faunas, although there are some Holocene archaeological holdings and some Tertiary material as well. This emphasis primarily reflects the research interests of the curator, Arthur H. Harris , who has maintained and added to the collections since their initial organization in 1965. The major components of the Vertebrate Paleobiology collections, and those of special interest, include the following:

Vertebrate Paleontology GEOL 4460-3 Spring 2003 TR: 4:00-5:15 How are all the different vertebrate groups related to one another ? How have the basic vertebrate structure been modified to adapt to different environments? What are the different constraints acting on aquatic, terrestrial or flying animals? This course will trace the development of the various vertebrate lineages through time. Many people find vertebrate fossils the most interesting, partly because we are vertebrates ourselves so the anatomy and structures are more familiar and partly because vertebrate fossils are in general very rare - the cool factor. The course is intended to develop an understanding of how modern vertebrates evolved from their ancestors and how how they are related to other animals, as well as the ways in which vertebrates function and how they have adapted to various environments. There is no laboratory class but students will be given the opportunity to examine some vertebrate fossils and replicas. There will be a visit to the Denver Museum of Nature and Science - this is voluntary, but it should help your understanding of these animals to see specimens and reconstructions.

For the Pliocene, small mammals are an effective means of correlating a magnetostratigraphy to the Geomagnetic Polarity Time Scale when radioisotopic dates are unobtainable.

Nicholas C. Fraser, Ph.D, Curator of Vertebrate Paleontology Dr. Nicholas C. Fraser, Curator of Vertebrate Paleontology at the Virginia Museum of Natural History, specializes in Early Mesozoic land vertebrates. He earned his Bachelor of Science degree in zoology from the University of Aberdeen, Scotland, in 1978, and his Ph.D. in geology in 1984. He was also awarded an honorary Master's degree from Cambridge University, England. Check out his Skeleton Closet! It's cool. Where are the world's most spectacular and important fossils found? The Gobi Desert or the Badlands of the American West are sure to be among the most popular answers. Virginia probably would not even rate a mention. However, that is likely to change as a result of the VMNH excavations at the Solite Quarry in Pittsylvania County under the supervision of Dr. Fraser. Together with colleagues from the American Museum of Natural History, Columbia University, and Ohio State University, Dr. Fraser has collected remarkable plant, vertebrate, and insect fossils under a grant from the National Geographic Society and was recently awarded a substantial grant from the National Science Foundation. The quality of preservation alone makes these fossils unusual. Add to that the fact that they paint the picture of an entire ecosystem living at one of the most critical periods in the history of life on land (the end of the Triassic, approximately 220-200 million years ago), and the quarry becomes one of the world's most unique fossil sites.
