by Richard J. Gentile and Thomas L. Thompson, 2004. Since 1961 (Vol. 40), many new concepts have developed concerning stratigraphic succession in Missouri, and new formations have been proposed. In 1965, the Missouri Geological Survey established a list of formal names of rock units in Missouri to serve as a standard for uniform stratigraphic nomenclature. This report includes information on original authors, descriptions, type sections of named rock units in Missouri and useful historical information on abandoned names. Reference sections of rocks units are illustrated and described. Serves as reference and field guide to Paleozoic formations of Missouri. CD only.
