Abdounia
''Abdounia'' is an extinct genus of requiem shark which lived during the Paleogene period. It is mainly known from isolated teeth. It is one of the earliest requiem sharks, and attained widespread success in North America, Europe, and Africa. Locations They are known from the paleogene of Morocco, France, Belgium, Russia, North Carolina, Georgia, Alabama, and Virginia. In the lower Nanjemoy Formation of Virginia, they are the most common fossil shark tooth. By the end of the Oligocene Epoch the genus is severely reduced, probably due to competition with other Carcharhiniformes like Carcharhinus. Species The following are species currently attributed to this genus. Note this may be an under-representation of actual diversity, as living relatives have extremely similar teeth across species. *'' Abdounia africana'' (Danian-Thanetian) *'' Abdounia beaugei'' (Paleocene-Eocene ) *'' Abdounia enniskelleni'' (Eocene) *'' Abdounia furimskyi'' (upper Eocene-Rupelian ) *'' Abdounia lapier ...

Nanjemoy Formation
The Nanjemoy Formation is a geologic formation pertaining to both the Wilcox Group and the Pamunkey Group of the eastern United States, stretching across the states of Virginia, Maryland, and District of Columbia. The formation crops out east of the Appalachians and dates back to the Paleogene period. Specifically to the Ypresian stage of the Eocene epoch, about 55 to 50 Ma or Wasatchian in the NALMA classification, defined by the contemporaneous Wasatch Formation of the Pacific US coast. The about thin formation crops out in a narrow irregular band and only in certain of the many creeks of the Maryland peninsula and on the southern side of the Potomac River in Virginia. The two members the formation was divided into by Clark and Martin in 1901; Potapaco and Woodstock, represent different phases in the basin history. The lower Potapaco Member is much more clayey, described as marl, than the upper Woodstock Member, probably characteristic of less storm influences in the shallow ...
