"Preliminary Survey of a Paleocene Faunule from the Angels Peak Area, New Mexico" by Robert W. Wilson is a scientific publication written in the mid-20th century. It presents findings from a paleontological survey conducted in the Angels Peak area of New Mexico, focusing on the fossilized remains of various mammalian species from the Paleocene era. The work aims to provide a preliminary catalog of discovered fauna and contribute to the overall understanding
of Paleocene ecosystems in that region. In this report, Wilson details the occurrence of mammalian fossils found in a specific concentration at Angels Peak, comprising approximately 150 specimens. The fossil assemblage includes representatives from multiple orders, with a notable prevalence of carnivores and ungulates. The analysis suggests that most of these fossils belong to a floodplain environment, with careful attention given to the stratigraphic context of the finds. Wilson discusses possible implications for the age of the faunule and identifies various species, contributing to the greater knowledge of Mammalian evolution during the Paleocene epoch. The study underscores the importance of this locality for future research and potential discoveries in paleobiology. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
