Taxonomía y paleoecología de los corales de la Formación Alisitos (Cretácico Inferior), Baja California, México. Resumen elaborado por: ______________________ Oscar Augusto Bonilla González La Formación Alisitos aflora en el noroeste de Baja California y está conformada por depósitos volcano-sedimentarios que en su miembro superior contienen calizas. Estas rocas contienen una fauna bentónica del Albiano Temprano, correlacionable con el Terreno Guerrero en el oeste y suroeste de México. Reconstrucciones paleogeográficas de Norte América durante el Cretácico Temprano, muestran al Arco Alisitos separado de la Cuenca de Bisbee por una masa continental. El conocimiento de las faunas coralinas del Cretácico Temprano en todos estos sitios, incluyendo Baja California, es muy escaso. Por lo tanto, la fauna coralina de Baja California representa una buena oportunidad de estudiar la biogeografía de corales escleractinios en el paleo-Pacífico oriental y su relación con las faunas del Tethys y del resto de Norte América. Este trabajo primero describe los atributos paleoecológicos de las faunas mediante el análisis de microfacies. Después trata los aspectos paleobiogeográficos, al comparar la composición taxonómica de las faunas coralinas estudiadas con otras faunas del Cretácico Inferior. Se colectaron muestras de corales fósiles y de rocas en dos secciones estratigráficas localizadas aproximadamente a 150 Km al sur de Ensenada, Baja California. Se prepararon y analizaron láminas delgadas, los valores morfométricos obtenidos se comparan con los del material tipo y otras muestras contenidas en una base de datos global. La fauna coralina de Alisitos está compuesta por 22 géneros y 52 especies. En comparación con otras faunas, muestra mayor afinidad con las de la Cuenca de Bisbee, en el noreste de Sonora y sureste de Arizona, con las que comparte un reducido número de géneros y la ausencia de familias clave presentes en el centro de México. Esta relación estrecha entre las faunas del Arco Alisitos y la Cuenca de Bisbee sugiere una comunicación marina entre Baja California y Sonora, por lo menos durante el Albiano Temprano. Palabras clave: corales escleractinios, Albiano Temprano, Arco Alisitos, taxonomía. iii Abstract of the thesis presented by Oscar Augusto Bonilla González as a partial requirement to obtain the Master of Science degree in Earth Science with orientation in Geology. Taxonomy and paleoecology of corals from the Alisitos Formation (Lower Cretaceous), Baja California, Mexico. Abstract by: ______________________ Oscar Augusto Bonilla González The Alisitos Formation crops out in northwestern Baja California and is composed by volcano-sedimentary deposits with interbedded limestones in the upper member. These rocks contain an Early Albian benthonic fauna, correlatable with the Guerrero terrane in west and southwest Mexico. Paleogeographic reconstructions of North America during this time, show the Alisitos Arc separated from the Bisbee Basin by a continental mass. The knowledge of Early Cretaceous coralline faunas in these areas, including Baja California is scarce. Therefore, study of the coralline faunas from the Alisitos Fm represents a good opportunity to study the biogeography of scleractinian corals in the eastern paleo-Pacific and their relationship with Tethyan and Northamerican faunas. This study describes first the paleoecological attributes, through microfacies analysis. Later, it deals with the paleobiogeographic aspects, comparing the taxonomic composition of the studied coralline faunas with other Lower Cretaceous faunas. Coral and rock samples were taken from two stratigraphic sections located at approximately 150 Km South of Ensenada, Baja California. Thin sections were prepared and analyzed, and the findings are compared against an existing global database. The Alisitos coralline fauna is composed by 22 genera and 52 species. In comparison with other faunas, shows the strongest affinities with the ones in Bisbee Basin from northeast Sonora and southeast Arizona, sharing a reduced number of genera and the absence of certain key families that are present in central Mexico. This relationship between the Bisbee Basin and Alisitos Arc coral faunas suggests a marine communication between Baja California and Sonora, during Lower Albian age. Key words: scleractinian corals, Early Albian, Alisitos Arc, taxonomy. iv Dedicatoria A mis padres Oscar Amado y Rosa Emma, por ser fuente inagotable amor y mi motivación más grande.

Based on data of the German-Tanzanian Tenda- guru Expedition 2000 and previous studies, and in accordance with the international stratigraphic guide, we raise the Tendaguru Beds to formational rank and recognise six members (from bottom to top): Lower Dinosaur Member, Nerinella Member, Middle Dinosaur Member, Indotrigonia africana Member, Upper Dinosaur Member, and Ruti- trigonia bornhardti-schwarzi Member. We characterise and discuss each member in de- tail in terms of derivation of name, definition of a type section, distribution, thickness, lithofacies, boundaries, palaeontology, and age. The age of the whole formation appar- ently ranges at least from the middle Oxfordian to the Valanginian through Hauterivian or possibly Aptian. The Tendaguru Formation constitutes a cyclic sedimentary succes- sion, consisting of three marginal marine, sandstone-dominated depositional units and three predominantly coastal to tidal plain, fine-grained depositional units with dinosaur remains.

  • A Nerinea from Southwestern Oriente Province, Cuba A
    JOURNAL OF PALEONTOLOGY,VOL. 26, NO. 1, PP. 60-62, PL. 11, JANUARY1952 A NERINEA FROM SOUTHWESTERNORIENTE PROVINCE, CUBA W. P. WOODRING U. S. GeologicalSurvey, Washington, D.C. ABSTRACT-Loose specimensof a new species of Nerinea, N. epelys,were found in an outcrop area of limestone of middle Eocene age in southwesternOriente Province, Cuba. They are presumedto be Upper Cretaceousdetrital constituents weathered out of the Eocene limestone. N. epelys is closely allied to the Upper Cretaceous Europea, N. bicincta;indeed, specimens of the Cuban species from the Upper Cre- taceous Habana formationof Camaguey Province were identified by Knipscheeras N. bicincta. HE Nerinea herewith described was col- fossils, however, were weathered out of their lected during the course of geologic map- matrix and were lying loose in the field. A ping in southwestern Oriente Province, low cliff of limestone of the Charco Redondo Cuba, in the foothills of the Sierra Maestra rises along the south border of the field less about 20 kilometers south-southeast of Bay- than 100 meters from the scattered spots amo. More specifically the locality is on the where the fossils were found. A float piece south side of Rio Guama on Finca Entre of Nerinea-bearing limestone was observed, Rios, the estate of the soldier and statesman but unfortunately not collected, closer to General Carlos Garcia Veles, a son of the the foot of the cliff, but no mollusks were Cuban general and patriot Calixto Garcia seen in the cliff-forming limestone. No ex- Iniiguez, immortalized in Elbert Hubbard's haustive search, however, was made; and "A Message to Garcia." I was guided to the other observations that would now be per- fossils by a son of the estate owner, Sr.

(Umboniidae, Nerineacea, Gastropoda) from the Mirdita Zone of Albania; remarks on the early phylogeny of the Nerineacea by Heinz A. KOLLMANN* & Luftulla H. PEZA** (With 2 plates) Manuscript submitted on October 1",1996, the revised manuscript on November 18'\ 1996 Summary Based on material from the Barremian/Aptian of Albania, the nerineacean Adaptyxis n. gen. is described. It possesses high turriculate shells with concave whorls of moderate height. Because of the hollow columella it is assigned to the Umboniidae LYSSENKO& AllEY. The columella is hollow. Of the internal plaits, the adapical columellar plait is very small. The other columellar plait, the palatal plait and the parietal plait are strong. Because of the internal morphology, Adaptyxis is considered as transitional between the genus Affiniptyxis LYSSENKO& AllEY and Plesioplocus PCHELINTSEY.Synchronously, Neoptyxis PCHELINTSEY evolved from Affiniptyxis. Both genera are part of the Simploptyxidae HAKOBJAN.An origin of the Umboniidae and the Ptygmatidae from a Melanioptyxis-like group in the Jurassic is considered. It is not clear whether the Nerineidae originated from the same group as the other nerineacean families or from the Mathildoid family Anoptychoidae, as was postulated by BANDEL(1995).
