The Haile Quarry or Haile sites are an Early Miocene and Pleistocene assemblage of vertebrate fossils located in the Haile quarries, Alachua County, northern Florida. The assemblage was discovered during phosphate mining, which began in the late 1940s.〔 Simpson, G. G. 1930. Tertiary land mammals of Florida. Bulletin of the American Museum of Natural History, 49:149-211.〕 Haile sites are found in the Alachua Formation. Two sites within the Ocala Limestone yielded Upper Eocene Valvatida (sea stars) and mollusks. University of Florida and Florida Museum of Natural History paleontologists numbered the Haile fossil sites with Arabic and Roman numbers and letters in order to define locations more distinctly. UF scientists used Roman numbering and the FLMNH scientists used Arabic. ==Numbered Haile sites== *V/XIXA aka Haile 5A, 19A (FLMNH repository) *5B Miocene *6A. *7C. *12B. *XVA aka 15A. *16A. *21A. *ID. *VIIA. *VIIIA. *XIB. *XIIIA. *XIIIB. *XIVA. *XIXD. *IVB.
