The fossil types are indicated by the varying colors, the geologic sediment is identified by blue letters surrounded by an oval shape and the various mountain belts are illustrated with pink numbers encompassed by a star shape. The legend at the bottom of the image can be used to identify specific characteristics through out the image.
