title: Table 1 in Middle and late Eocene fish otoliths from the eastern and southern USA

description: Table 1 (continued on next two pages). An overview of otolith-based fish taxa from the middle and late Eocene of the eastern and southern USA. Fossil genera are underlined. The number of identified specimens is indicated for each studied stratum. The collection of the Yazoo Clay of Louisiana was directly derived from Nolf & Stringer (2003) for comparison. Data sources: a = Frizzell & Lamber (1961); b = Frizzell & Lamber (1962); c = Frizzell & Dante (1965); d = Müller (1999); e = Nolf (2003); f = Stringer (2016); g = Ebersole et al. (2019); h = Stringer et al. (2022: table 3).
