  • Upper Cenomanian–Lower Turonian Ammonoids from the Saxonian Cretaceous (Lower Elbtal Group, Saxony, Germany)
    Upper CenomanianLower Turonian ammonoids from the Saxonian Cretaceous (lower Elbtal Group, Saxony, Germany) MARKUS WILMSEN & EMAD NAGM The Upper Cenomanian to Lower Turonian ammonoid fauna of the Saxonian Cretaceous (Elbtal Group, Saxony, Ger- many) has been revised based on the study of 270 specimens hosted in the Museum für Mineralogie und Geologie (MMG) of the Senckenberg Naturhistorische Sammlungen Dresden. In total, 12 species have been identified and, based on this revision, a number of ammonoids are now reported and/or illustrated for the first time from the Elbtal Group of Saxony: Euomphaloceras septemseriatum, Neocardioceras juddii barroisi, Watinoceras coloradoense, Spathites (Jeanrogericeras) reveliereanus, Sciponoceras gracile and Scaphites equalis. The study demonstrated the presence of all Upper Cenomanian and Lower Turonian standard ammonite biozones in the lithostratigraphic succession of the lower Elbtal Group: the lower Upper Cenomanian Calycoceras naviculare Zone (represented by the Oberhäslich For- mation), the mid- and upper Upper Cenomanian Metoicoceras geslinianum and Neocardioceras juddii zones (repre- sented by the Dölzschen Formation), and the Lower Turonian Watinoceras coloradoense and Mammites nodosoides zones (represented by the Brießnitz Formation). The ammonoid fauna from the Saxonian Cretaceous is dominated by strongly ornamented and widely distributed Acanthoceratidae. • Key words: Upper Cretaceous, Saxo-Bohemian Creta- ceous Basin, ammonites, taxonomic revision, biostratigraphy.

  • The International Ihagee/Exakta Convention, Dresden April 2012 (1) by Mark Stuecheli (Most Illustrations Are Photos Taken by the Author; a Few Are Mine HR)
    The International Ihagee/Exakta Convention, Dresden April 2012 (1) by Mark Stuecheli (most illustrations are photos taken by the author; a few are mine HR) Over a year ago, Jim Focht and I vowed to attend the Convention in Dresden, which took place on April 12-14. Luckily we were able to live up to our expectations, and we connected in Kansas City for our trip to Dresden as the only representatives from the United States. We have calculated that it makes us very special – two out of over 311 million! I have organized the commentary sequentially by each day of our stay in Dresden. These reports are also published on the Topica Exakta list. I have included photos from the trip in the Exakta List Photo Directory. A separate folder will be provided for each day’s activities. Please forgive me, but all of the shots were taken with my low-budget Canon digital camera, I did take a few photos with my Exakta VX1000, but found that I usually was too rushed to pull out the Exakta. Day One: Blue Wonder Our flight departed on Tuesday morning, and after a rather unpleasant series of flights (including layovers in Chicago and Frankfurt), our plane arrived in Dresden around noon on Wednesday. We know very little German and discovered very quickly that not many Dresdeners are fluent in English (we understand that it’s due to the preferred second language being Russian before reunification). After some confusion on our part in catching the train to the main station in Dresden, locating the correct tram to our hotel, and finding our hotel; we finally were able to crash in our rooms in the early afternoon.
