Justin Tweet, thank you for the link
Any chance of listing of the Western Interior Seaway for Early Cretaceous (Albian and Aptian) Ammonite/Inoceramid biozones or even subzones
Thank you

You might find something useful in the 2020 "Geologic Time Scale" volume. Both the 2012 full and 2016 concise versions include North American ammonite and inoceramid biozones in a figure, from the Maastrichtian into the Cenomanian. I think they would both be revised versions of the scheme in USGS Open-File Report 2006-1250, available at https://pubs.er.usgs.gov/publication/ofr20061250.
