Subunits
Owasco
The Owasco is a thin distinct silty unit. It has sharp distinct boundaries at its top and base. It is flaggy, locally fossiliferous and is displays cross bedding in some locations. The upper contact maybe a diastem, rather than an erosional disconformity. This unit is fairly thin only 1-2' thick in outcrops. It thickens westward.Fossils
The brachiopod AIlanella tullius is one of the fossils the Owasco is noted for.Jaycox
