The Okeechobean Sea was a Cenozoic eutropical subsea, which along with the Choctaw Sea, occupied the eastern Gulf of Mexico basin system bounding Florida. ==Location== The Okeechobean Sea was a named for Lake Okeechobee of southern Early Oligocene Florida. It occupied southern Florida from what is now Tampa, Florida to the Kissimmee River and to Martin County on the east and southward across the Everglades to the tip of Florida. The Okeechobean (including its subseas) survived until the Pleistocene making it the longest-lived paleosea in eastern North America. The Okeechobean Sea was divided further into two groups of a combined 10 subseas based upon marine fauna. These subseas were named: *Dade Subsea *Tampa Subsea *Arcadia Subsea *Murdock Subsea *Tamiami Subsea *Charlotte Subsea *Caloosahathee Subsea *Laxahatchee Subsea *Lake Worth Subsea *Belle Glade Subsea 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Okeechobean Sea」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
