Title
The Fossil Cypraeidae of the Fruitville Member (Unit 2) and Kissimmee River Valley Equivalent, Tamiami Formation of Southern Florida: (Mollusca: Gastropoda: Cypraeidae).
Unit 2 was the last member of the Tamiami Formation of the Late Piacenzian Pliocene. Its ending signaled the commencement of a two stage extinction event. The first stage wounding event resulted in the disappearance of the Akleistostoma (Gardner, 1948), Calusacypraea (Petuch, 1996) and Pseudadusta (Petuch, 2004) genera and the end of the Tamiami Formation.
