Brown 2915, Puerto Madryn 9120, Chubut, Argentina. [email protected]; [email protected] * Corresponding author: [email protected] ABSTRACT. A shallow marine invertebrate association is reported from a new Early Jurassic locality namely La Casilda, which is situated in the southwestern region of the Chubut Basin (Patagonia, Argentina). The marine deposits of La Casilda are located in the Río Genoa valley and bear a diverse invertebrate fauna including bivalves, gastropods, brachiopods, echinoderms and corals. A preliminary taxonomic analysis of the invertebrate fauna suggests that La Casilda deposits belong to the Mulanguiñeu Formation of late Pliensbachian-early Toarcian age, and may be coeval with those from the marine localities previously sampled in other regions of the Río Genoa valley. The preliminary results of a biodiversity analysis displayed that La Casilda is one of the most diverse localities at the Chubut Basin and could be assigned to the biofacies at the mixed siliciclastic-carbonate ramp proposed for the marine Early Jurassic at the Andean Basin of northern Chile. The evolution of the marine transgression during the early Pliensbachian-early Toarcian is also interpreted here in a time scale based on ammonite faunas, giving a preliminary temporal reconstruction of the entire Chubut Basin. Keywords: Invertebrates, La Casilda, Mulanguiñeu Formation, Chubut Basin, Argentina.

  • Preservational History of Compressed Jurassic Ammonites from Southern Germany
    N. Jb. Geol. Paliiont. Abh. 152 3 307—356 | Stuttgart, November 1976 Fossildiagenese Nr. 2 0 9 Preservational history of compressed Jurassic ammonites from Southern Germany By A. Seilacher, F. Andalib, G. Dietl and H. Gocht With 20 figures in the text Seilacher, A., Andalib, F., D ietl, G. 8c G ocht, H.: Preservational history of compressed Jurassic ammonites from Southern Germany. — N. Jb. Geol. Paliiont. Abh., 152, 307—356, Stuttgart 1976. Abstract: Preservational features express the varying time relationships between shell solution, compaction and cementation processes during early diagenesis. In many cases they correlate better with the depositional environments than with the present lithologies of the enclosing rocks. K ey words: Ammonitida, fossilization, diagenesis, deformation, Jurassic; SW-German mesozoic hills. Zusammenfassung: Erhaltungszustande definierter Gehausetypen spiegeln das zeit- liche Verhaltnis von Schalenlosung, Kompaktion und Zementation wahrend der Friih- diagenese. Da sie eher vom Ablagerungsmilieu als vom Stoflbestand des fertigen Gestcins abhangen, konnen sie als Fazies-Indikatoren eingesetzt werden. The beauty of fossils is one of the main attractions in paleontology; but at the same time it tends to distract from the wealth of geologic in­ formation that is encoded in the “poor” specimens. The present study tries to tap this reservoir by using ammonites so poorly preserved that they would have been rejected by most collectors.

  • Phylum Mollusca – Class Bivalvia
    Phylum Mollusca – Class Bivalvia • Class of marine and fresh water invertebrates with hinged shells • Previously referred to as Pelecypoda (pelecypods) • Includes over 9000 living species (clams, oysters, muscles, scallops) • Majority are filter feeders • Most species bury in sediment to protect from predators, most are modestly mobile, a few like scallops can swim • Shell built of calcium carbonate • Earliest bivalves were in the Cambrian Period Clams are the longest living species on the planet. A clam found in Iceland was 507 years old. Many live 200-300 years. Class Bivalvia 30.

The three lowest subzones of the Upper Lias occur in the top 1 m of the Marlstone Rock Bed. This is overlain by the Transition Bed of Semicelatum Subzone age and the Abnormal Fish Bed of Exaratum Subzone age.
