“…More recently, Jutras et al (2007) reassigned the formations of the Pictou Group in central New Brunswick to the Cumberland Group. Bethoux et al (2021) used the traditional stratigraphic classification i.e., the Pictou Group (Bell 1944;Dyer 1926;Muller 1951;St. Peter 2000) an approach we follow here pending further study.…”

“…Peter 2000) an approach we follow here pending further study. The Minto Formation sits at the base of the Pictou Group within the New Brunswick Platform (Dyer 1926;Muller 1951). Muller (1951) reassigned the Grand Lake Formation of Dyer (1926) to the Pictou Group of Bell (1944) and upgraded the Minto, Hurley Creek and Sunbury Creek members to formation status (Fig.…”

“…Using the traditional stratigraphic nomenclature, the Minto Formation is defined as a 200-230-m-thick section of grey to reddish-brown and locally maroon strata exposed in central New Brunswick (Dyer 1926;Muller 1951). Conformably above the Minto Formation is the Hurley Creek Formation, defined as a 45-60-m-thick stratigraphic package containing abundant redbeds that coarsen upwards as a whole.…”

A new specimen of Batrachichnus salamandroides was recovered from a recently discovered fossil-bearingsite situated along the southern shore of Grand Lake, New Brunswick, among a diverse ichnofaunal assemblagefrom the Middle Pennsylvanian (upper Bolsovian; lower Moscovian), upper Minto Formation. The identity ofthe tracemaker of this ichnogenus is reinterpreted as a composite of various late Paleozoic tetrapod taxa, basedon similarities of the postcranial skeletons, notably that of the manus and pes, of both temnospondyls and some“microsaurs”. These results indicate that the tracemaker of the monospecific ichnogenus Batrachnichus is notlimited solely to a temnospondyl tracemaker, as previously interpreted, and that some “microsaurs” should alsobe considered among tracemaker candidates for this ichnotaxon.

Oriented samples were taken from five sites in the Hurley Creek formation of New Brunswick. This formation lies immediately over the Minto formation, which is well-dated by fossils. Thermal cleaning shows that only one very stable magnetization is present. The between-site dispersion is consistent with a magnetization acquired during or shortly after deposition. The mean directions (D = 171øE and I ----+09 ø) of the Hurley Creek formation are therefore considered representative of the Pennsylvanian field of New Brunswick, Cmaada. The corresponding pole position is 39øN, 125øE.
