Taxonomy . 71 References . 125 Index . 156 22 figures, 12 plates The calcareous nannoplankton floras of sections in Tunisia, Southern Spain and France have been investigated leading to a succession of 17 biozones for the Middle and Upper Cretaceous, of which the Rucinolithus hayii Zone for the Middle Santonian is new. In order to correlate the zona- tion with the chronostratigraphic scale the calcareous nannofossil contents of the stratotypes of the commonly used European Middle and Upper Cretaceous stages have been investigated. The nannofloras of the Cenomanian and Turonian Stages have been published in earlier papers and the stratotype of the Coniacian Stage contains no calcareous nannofossils. From the samples used for the present study the planktonic foraminifera have also been studied to obtain a first order correlation between the zona- tions based on calcareous nannoplankton and planktonic foraminifera. Evolutionary trends have been recognized and are described in detail in the genera Ceratolithoides, Eiffellithus and Broinsonia. For the description of the calcareous nannofossils the generally accepted terminology is used, completed with some new terms. Remarks have been made on the observed taxa and several new combinations are proposed. Calcareous nannoplankton is a composite group for the skeletal elements of the coccosphaeres of golden brown algae. The size of these elements usually is smaller than about SO p. The group includes nannofossils of un- certain origin with a rather unusual shape, of which a coccosphaere or part of a coccosphaere has so far not been reported. The oldest known elements considered as calcareous nannofossils are reported from Paleozoic deposits (Noel, 1961; Deflandre, 1970; Pirini Radrizzani, 1971; Gartner and Gentile, 1972). As pointed out by Gartner and Gentile (1972), the assignment of these fossils to the calcareous nanno- fossils is rather doubtful. The stratigraphic record in the Paleozoic seems to be discontinuous and some of these "fossils" may be of inorganic origin. The more continuous record starts in the Lower Jurassic (Prins, 1969; Barnard and Hay, 1974) and extends without interruption to the Recent. The present study deals with the nannoplankton of the Middle Albian-Upper Maastrich- tian interval. The purpose of this study was to develop a zonation for the Middle Albian to Upper Maastrichtian based on calcareous nannofossils. A preliminary version of this zonation was published already (Verbeek, 197 6b). For the zonation now proposed, full profit is gained from the criticism received from several colleagues. The calcareous nannofossils of the investigated interval are described in the systematic part of the paper. An attempt has been made to recognize evolutionary trends. Some selected taxa were therefore given special attention. In order to establish a detailed zonation, sections that cover long strati- graphic intervals without notable gaps in the sedimentation were required. The Kef section in Tunisia contains a rather complete sequence from Albian to Maastrichtian of which the Upper Cenomanian to Upper Maastrichtian interval was studied. The section forms the primary control for the proposed zonation. Other sequences which are shorter, but useful for well defined portions of the Middle and Upper Cretaceous are those of El Burrueco (Southern Spain) and J avernant (Paris Basin). Subsequently the scattered stratotypes of the European Middle and Upper Cretaceous stages have been correlated to the proposed zonation, whenever possible. The same sections and samples have been studied for planktonic foramini- fera by A. A. H. Wonders (in preparation). This allows a direct comparison between the calcareous nannoplankton zonation and a zonation based on planktonic foraminifera. Results of this comparison are presented as well. Arkhangelsky (1912) published the first paper on systematics of Upper Cretaceous calcareous nannofossils, as a part of his study of the Upper Cretaceous of the USSR. This is the only paper dealing with this subject from the first half of the 20th century. In 1952 Deflandre started a series of papers on Upper Cretaceous cal- careous nannofossils. At about the same time Deflandre and Fert (1952, 1954) introduced the use of the electron microscope as a means to obtain more detailed observations. Most of Deflandre's publications that followed described a few species at a time. In 1959 he gave a more extensive review of the Upper Cretaceous calcareous nannofossil taxonomy. Gorka (1957) described the nannoflora of the Maastrichtian of Poland. Her figures are rather schematic, which makes the recognition of her new species somewhat difficult. In 1967 Reinhardt and Gorka revised some of Gorka's species and gave better illustrations. The third author on calcareous nannofossils from Upper Cretaceous sediments between 1950 and 1960 was Vekshina (1959), who worked on the Maastrichtian of Western Siberia. Vekshina used the electron microscope to figure her new species and gave detailed descriptions. After 1960 the number of authors increased. In Austria Stradner started to publish (1961, 1962, 1963). At first his work was only of taxonomic interest, afterwards he also considered biostratigraphy. In the DDR Rein- hardt (1964, 1965, 1966a, b, 1967, 1969, 1970a, b, 1971) refined the taxonomy by using the electron microscope and a quartz plate in the light microscope to observe the details of the structure of calcareous nannofossils. In 1964 Bramlette and Martini published their paper on the mass extinc- tion of calcareous nannofossils at the Cretaceous-Tertiary boundary. After 1966 a large number of publications appeared with numerous well- documented and well-figured species. Papers which contain the most useful information about Middle and Upper Cretaceous calcareous nannoplankton taxonomy are those of Stover (1966, France, Netherlands), Perch-Nielsen (1968, Denmark), Gartner (1968, Texas, Arkansas), Bukry (1969, Texas, Europe), Noel (1969, 1970, Paris Basin), Thierstein (1971, 1973, France, Switzerland, Atlantic Ocean), Manivit (1971, France), Black (1972,

  • And Their Pa Laeoe Co Logical Significance
    LATE CRETACEOUS SILICEOUS SPONGES FROM THE MIDDLE VISTULA RIVER VALLEY (CENTRAL POLAND) AND THEIR PA LAEOE CO LOGICAL SIGNIFICANCE Ewa ŚWIERCZEWSKA-GŁADYSZ Geological Department o f the Łódź University, Narutowicza 88, 90-139 Łódź, Poland; e-mail: [email protected] Świerczewska-Gładysz, E., 2006. Late Cretaceous siliceous sponges from the Middle Vistula River Valley (Central Poland) and their palaeoecological significance. Annales Societatis Geologorum Poloniae, 76: 227-296. Abstract: Siliceous sponges are extremely abundant in the Upper Campanian-Maastrichtian opokas and marls of the Middle Vis-ula River VaUey, situated in the western edge of the Lublin Basin, part of the Cre-aceous German-Polish Basin. This is also the only one area in Poland where strata bearing the Late Maastrichtian sponges are exposed. The presented paper is a taxonomic revision of sponges coUected from this region. Based both on existing and newly collected material comprising ca. 1750 specimens, 51 species have been described, including 18 belonging to the Hexactinosida, 15 - to the Lychniscosida and 18 - to Demospongiae. Among them, 28 have not been so far described from Poland. One new genus Varioporospongia, assigned to the family Ventriculitidae Smith and two new species Varioporospongia dariae sp. n. and Aphrocallistes calciformis sp. n. have been described. Comparison of sponge fauna from the area of Podilia, Crimea, Chernihov, and Donbas regions, as well as literature data point to the occurrence of species common in the analysed area and to the basins of Eastern and Western Europe. This in turn indicates good connections between particular basins of the European epicontinental sea dumg the Campanian-Maastrichtian.

  • Geodynamic Evolution of the Rhenodanubian Flysch Zone - Evidence from Apatite and Zircon Fission-Track Geochronology and Morphology Studies on Zircon

E. & RAssrn, M. W. (Eds.): Paleogene of the Eastern Alps. - Österr. Akad. Wiss., Schriftenr. Erdwiss. Komm. 14: 111-128, 9 Figs., 2 Tabs., Wien. Abstract: The geodynamic evolution of the East-Alpine Rhenodanubian flysch zone (RDFZ) is reconstructed by fission-track (FT) geochronology and the external habits of zircon. The samples are derived from Paleogene and Cretaceous formations of the RDFZ. Ordovician, Carboniferous and Triassic zircon FT ages and the external morphology of the zircons of the Laab Formation are evidence for a European source area. The zircons of the Greifenstein Formation are derived from the Alpine orogen reflecting the Eoalpine orogeny. Due to the different provenance of these two Paleogene formations, two separate depositional areas are assumed, which are called the Main Flysch basin and the Laab basin. The Laab basin was positioned to the north of the Main Flysch basin. They were either separated by a submarine swell, or the Laab Formation was deposited in less deep water north of the Greifenstein Formation. The thermal evolution of the RDFZ, which represents an accretionary wedge, is deduced from fission-track data. During the Paleogene, the differently buried stratigraphic units in the area between Salzburg and Ybbsitz experienced cooling due to exhumation after accretion of the European continental margin sediments.

  • Hydrogeochemical Characteristics and Evolution of Groundwater at the Ras Sudr-Abu Zenima Area, Southwest Sinai, Egypt
    JKAU: Earth Sci., Vol. 21, No. 1, pp: 79-109 (2010 A.D. / 1431 A.H.) DOI: 10.4197 / Ear. 21-1.4 Hydrogeochemical Characteristics and Evolution of Groundwater at the Ras Sudr-Abu Zenima Area, Southwest Sinai, Egypt Anwar A. El-Fiky Hydrogeology Department, Faculty of Earth Sciences, King Abdulaziz University, P.O. Box: 80206 Jeddah, 21589, Saudi Arabia Received: 17/1/2009 Accepted: 14/10/2009 Absrtact. The hydrogeochemical and isotopic data of groundwaters of the different aquifers of the Ras Sudr-Abu Zenima area, southwest Sinai, Egypt were examined to determine the main factors controlling the groundwater chemistry and salinity as well as its hydrogeochemical evolution. Groundwater occurs in different water- bearing formations belonging to Quaternary, Neogene, Upper Cretaceous, and Paleozoic. Different geochemical interpretation methods were used to identify the geochemical characteristics. Groundwater of the coastal Quaternary alluvial aquifer has the highest salinity values (2739-7040 mg/l) in the study area due to the impact of seawater and agricultural activities. Piper diagram showed that Cl and SO4 are the dominant anions, whereas Na is the most dominant cation, where it is sometimes replaced by Ca and/or Mg in the hydrochemical facies of the groundwaters. Durov diagram plot revealed that the groundwater has been evolved from Ca-HCO3 recharge water through mixing with the pre-existing groundwater to give mixed water of Mg- SO4 and Mg-Cl types that eventually reached a final stage of evolution represented by a Na-Cl water type. Different ionic ratios revealed the impact of seawater and marine aerosols on the hydrochemical composition of groundwater of the Quaternary aquifer.

The high-energy, shallow ma­ rine water below the intertidal zone is postulated as an environment' of their for-· mation.· A considerable content of collophane gives' them a composite, partly biose­ dimentary and ' partly inorganic character. In the northern· area (pniald), the stro­ mato1$tesoverlle condensed Cenomanlan-Turonian · deposits, the micro1acial analysis of which reveals a -cyclic detrital inflow. The appeal"BoDCe of the stromatolitic layer is preceded by an increase in the detrital inflOW, connected with the decrease in rate of sedimentation and probably, shallowing. The submarine 'nondeptlsitional surface occurs iD both the ,nOrthern (Pni8ki) and south~ (Bocieniec) area in the top of the stromatolitlc layer. Since at Bocieniec, this layer is connected with conglomerate, the age , of which has, on the basis of LewesiceTas,peramplum ' (Manteli), been de- termined 8S Turonian, the stromatolitic layer .Is a180 assigned to the Turonia'n. INTRODUCTION The Cretaceous stromatolites, 'mown from "Very: few localities (Nie­ godzisz 1965, Achauer & Johnson 1969) have only rarely been described .. For this reason, the Upper Cretaceous stromatolites in the Polish Jura· Chain (cf. Fig. 1) have been sulbjected to a'CcuT.ate studies. In tlle two outcrops, they occur at a discontinuity surface, corresponding to a con­ siderable stratlgraphic gap, which is also observed. in several o~her out­ crops,;but in which it is not accompanied 'by the ·stromatolites.
