sands and unlithfied fossiliferous sand.




Qh/Qph Holocene sediments consisting of quartz sand with minor
amounts oforganic matter and clay associated with lagoonal
deposits. Mostly beach and dune sands along present
coastline. No formations recognized.
Qr Holocene fluvial and lacustrine sands, clays, marls and
peats. No formations recognized. Used in peninsular area
only.
Qsu Shell beds, undifferentiated. Includes sediments previously
placed in units primarily differentiated by the included
fauna (e.g. the Caloosahatchee, Ft. Thompson, and Nashua
Formations, Pinecrest Beds)
Qu Undifferentiated surficial sands, clayey sands, clays,
