This paper will discuss six of these ideas. The classic model of P. B. King has the Hovey channel as being the inlet for the Permian basin, but new evidence suggests that the inlet was on the Salt Basin side of the Delaware basin rather than on the Glass Mountains side. The “Stage 1 ﬁssure karst” in the Guadalupe Mountains has now been established as karst-modiﬁed syndepositional faults formed in Guadalupian (Late Permian) time. The “Stage 2 spongework karst” represents the slow diffuse circulation of Capitan aquifer water during limestone mesogenesis in the Mesozoic (Jurassic). The siliceous summit gravels of the Guadalupe Mountains are most likely Cox gravels of Comanchian (Early Cretaceous) age. The “Stage 2 spar-lined caves” in the Guadalupe Mountains date from the early Laramide (Late Cretaceous) and represent a time of deeply circulating, hydrothermal solutions.

The evidence is weighed in this paper. Support for the hypothesis includes (1) cave patterns that indicate in situ acid generation; (2) alteration minerals that form at low pH; (3) deep rills in carbonate rock formed by local acidic drips; (4) negative δ34S values in cave gypsum that contrast with positive values in nearby marine deposits; and (5) similarity to active H2S caves elsewhere.

Lucas","doi":"10.56577/ffc-.317","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.56577/ffc-.317","url":null,"abstract":"A BSTRACT . —Southeastern New Mexico (SENM) has a wealth of Pleistocene vertebrate faunas. There are 40 named sites, with three major concentrations: 11 open sites in the Sacramento Mountains in Lincoln and Otero counties; 12 open sites in the Pecos River Valley and its tributaries in Chaves and Eddy counties; and 11 cave sites in the Guadalupe Mountains in Eddy County. Most open sites are dominated by large grazing mammals, including Mammuthus, Equus, Bison, and Camelops . Important open sites are Jal in Lea County with 13 species of vertebrates, Roswell from gravel pits near the Pecos River in Chaves County with 8 species, and Dry Gulch in the Sacramento Mountains in Lincoln County with a partial skeleton of Mam-muthus columbi. Notable faunal records include Paramylodon harlani from Jal and Roswell, Smilodon gracilis from 25 Mile Stream in Eddy County, Panthera atrox from Jal, and Mammut americanum from Jal and Piñon in Otero County. Pendejo Cave in Otero County and the Guadalupe Mountains caves in Eddy County, including Burnet Cave, Dark Canyon Cave, Dry Cave, and Muskox Cave, among others, sample 98% (253 of 259 species) of the vertebrate species known from Pleistocene sites in SENM and 70% (253 of 367 species) of the species known from Pleistocene sites in New Mexico. Although most of these are extant species, 20 extinct megafaunal mammals are known from caves in SENM, including 8 species unknown from open sites in this region: Nothrotheriops shastensis, Canis dirus, Arctodus simus, Miracinonyx trumani, Tapirus sp., Navahoceros fricki, Euceratherium collinum, and Oreamnos harringtoni. Pleistocene cave faunas from SENM contain many extant species of small mammals no longer found in this region, including 5 species of Sorex, Marmota ﬂaviventris, Thomomys talpoides, Neotoma cinerea, Lemmiscus curtatus, 4 species of Microtus, and Sylvilagus nuttallii. Most of these small mammals are now found at higher elevations in the mountains of northern New Mexico, indicating cooler temperatures and more available moisture in SENM during the late Pleistocene.","PeriodicalId":115438,"journal":{"name":"Caves and karst of southeastern New Mexico","volume":"138 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124335444","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
