Description

Rubey (1952), using scattered data from outcrops, described the Kritesville Syncline as a subtle southeast-plunging syncline beneath the Mississippi River. It appears on Rubey's plate 2 and is mentioned once in Rubey (1952, p. 139). Retaining the name does not appear justified because the structure is so poorly defined.
