The initial collection of fossils in SCAB was carried out at four localities within the system. The fossils were recovered in the sediments from top soil or by sieving but were not found a layer horizon per se. The mammal fauna found in SCAB can be used to establish a minimum age of 33,670 ± 370 years before the present (Pleistocene) for the semi-arboreal sloth (Acratocnus odontrigonus). Other fossils found were the large hutia (Elasmodontomys obliquus) and smaller hutia (Isolobodon portoricensis), as well as birds such as the crow (Corvus sp.), Audubon shearwater (Puffinus lherminieri), the Antillean cave rail (Nesotrochis debooyi), and reptiles such as the giant anole (Anolis cuvieri), the land iguana (Cyclura sp.) and amphibians such as the coqui (Eleutherodactylus sp.) and the toad (Peltophryne sp.). SCAB provides new information relating to the distribution of Quaternary fossils in northern Puerto Rico. Although most of the fauna found in this deposit have already been collected from other localities, the encrusted bones of the anuran Peltophryne sp. and other data are evolutionary and paleobiogeographical clues.
