  • Ancient Lacustrine Hyperpycnites: a Depositional Model from a Case Study in the Rayoso Formation (Cretaceous) of West-Central Argentina
    Journal of Sedimentary Research, 2006, v. 76, 41–59 Reseach Article DOI: 10.2110/jsr.2006.12 ANCIENT LACUSTRINE HYPERPYCNITES: A DEPOSITIONAL MODEL FROM A CASE STUDY IN THE RAYOSO FORMATION (CRETACEOUS) OF WEST-CENTRAL ARGENTINA CARLOS ZAVALA,1,2 JUAN JOSE´ PONCE,2 MARIANO ARCURI,2 DANIEL DRITTANTI,1 HUGO FREIJE,2 2 AND MARCOS ASENSIO 1Departamento de Geologı´a, Universidad Nacional del Sur, San Juan 670, 8000 Bahı´a Blanca, Argentina 2Instituto Argentino de Oceanografı´a, Consejo Nacional de Investigaciones Cientı´ficas y Te´cnicas, Camino de La Carrindanga 7.5 km, 8000 Bahı´a Blanca, Argentina e-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT: Hyperpycnal flows originate when sediment-laden fluvial discharges enter standing, lower-density water. Because of their excess density, the flows plunge near the river mouth and continue to travel basinward as a quasi-steady and fully turbulent underflow. The related deposits are hyperpycnites, and constitute a particular type of turbidite with poorly known facies and facies tracts. Although hyperpycnal flows seem to be quite common in present times, their occurrence in fossil strata is poorly documented. This paper addresses the characteristics and depositional processes of shallow lacustrine sandy hyperpycnites, on the basis of the field analysis of well-exposed Lower Cretaceous strata (Rayoso Formation) in the Neuque´n Basin of west-central Argentina. The Rayoso Formation is composed of clastic (and minor evaporitic) red beds up to 1200 m thick, deposited in a shallow perennial lake of variable salinity affected by long-lived hyperpycnal flows. Main clastic facies are composed of fine-grained sandstones with climbing ripples and plane beds.

    Capitol Reef National Park National Park Service U.S. Department of the Interior Geology “Geology knows no such word as forever.” —Wallace Stegner Capitol Reef National Park’s geologic story reveals a nearly complete set of Mesozoic-era sedimentary layers. For 200 million years, rock layers formed at or near sea level. About 75-35 million years ago tectonic forces uplifted them, forming the Waterpocket Fold. Forces of erosion have been sculpting this spectacular landscape ever since. Deposition If you could travel in time and visit Capitol Visiting Capitol Reef 180 million years ago, Reef 245 million years ago, you would not when the Navajo Sandstone was deposited, recognize the landscape.

Gral. J.A. Roca 1242, 8332 General Roca, Argentina, [email protected] Keywords: Early Cretaceous, Rayoso Formation, Argentina, Rebbachisauridae The rebbachisaurids are a group of medium‐sized sauropods with a fundamentally Gondwanan distribution (South America, Africa) from the middle‐upper part of the Early Cretaceous to the lower part of the Late Cretaceous. They were the last diplodocoids in becoming extinct. They are also recorded in Europe, with Demandasaurus, having been described in Salas de los Infantes, Spain (Torcida Fernández‐Baldor et al., 2011). The rebbachisaurids have played a particularly significant role in the recognition of the events of dispersal and vicariance that took place within Gondwana and between Gondwana and Laurasia in the Early Cretaceous, the time of the rupture and definitive separation of Africa and South America.

It has produced the richest and most diverse fauna of amphibians and squamate reptiles reported from the Palaeogene of Africa. Moreover, it is one of the rare faunas including amphibians and squamates known from the period of isolation of Africa. The assemblage comprises 17 to 20 taxa (one gymnophionan, one probable caudate, three to six anurans, seven ‘lizards’, and five snakes). Two new taxa were recovered: the anuran Rocekophryne ornata gen. et sp. nov. and the snake Afrotortrix draaensis gen.

They are classically referred either to uniloc- ular parathuramminid foraminifera, algae incertae sedis or calcispheres (e.g., Bisphaera, Cribrosphaeroides, Uslo­ nia, Vermiporella myna, Irregularina). Due to their morphology and microstructural features, they are interpreted here as possibly belonging to Thaumatoporella PIA, a widespread Mesozoic-Early Cenozoic taxon of incertae sedis showing a remarkably high morphological variability. In analogy to Mesozoic thaumatoporellaceans, Bisphaera ma­ levkensis BIRINA is interpreted as the cyst (i.e.= resting) stage of forms ascribed to different genera, i.e., Cribro­ sphaeroides, Uslonia and Vermiporella (here: Vermiporella myna WRAY). Note that in the Mesozoic many taxa were also synonymized with Thaumatoporella: Polygonella ELLIOTT, Lithoporella elliotti (EMBERGER), Messopota­ mella DRAGASTAN et al., Vermiporella crisiae DRAGASTAN et al., Micritosphaera SCOTT. This new interpretation, based on material from the Devonian of W-Germany and the Czech Republic, leads to taxonomic reassessment as Thaumatoporella? malevkensis (BIRINA) nov.

Buenos Aires, 30-6-2001 Terrestrial ecosystems on the Mesozoic peri-Adriatic carbonate platforms: the vertebrate evidence Fabio M. DALLAVECCHIN Abstract. The remains of Mesozoic carbonate platforms outcrop along the margins of the Adriatic Sea and the mountain chains surrounding them in Italy, Slovenia and Croatia. Despite the fact that the platforms were far from continents, abundant evidence of terrestrial vertebrates was recently found, mainly in the Norian, Lower Jurassic and Cretaceous, and is here reviewed. The presence of populations of large ter- restrial vertebrates (mainly dinosaurs) on these carbonate platforms, and in particular the discovery of late Hauterivian-early Barremian sauropods and late Santonian hadrosaurids, has important paleoecological and paleogeographical implications.
