Self-Trail. Calcareous nannofossils were examined from upper Paleocene and lower Eocene marine sediments from six coreholes that were drilled in southern New Jersey. Microfossil data from New Jersey were compared to and were found to be consistent with material examined from the Atlantic coastal plain of Alabama, Maryland, and Virginia. The biostratigraphic and lithostratigraphic data indicate continuous deposition across the Paleocene-Eocene boundary in the part of New Jersey. 116p., followed by 38 plates on unnumbered pages, 27 figs., 3 tables. $8
