Stoykova - Stratigraphy of Aptian and Albian Stages in the central part of Moesia11 P/utfor111e. Aptian Stage is widespread in the Central North Bulgaria, while the Albian is established only in the northern regions. The Aptian se<.:tions are built up of sediments of the Trambes and Svistov Formations. It has been es­ tablished that the Triimbes and Svistov Formation join laterally along the line Svi stov-Tatari- Osil m. The concretion phosphorites and sandstones, within the range of Albian, are here separated as Dekov Formations. The lithologic and ammonitic sequences in 9 sections are studied and described. Aptian Stage is represented by the Middlt: (Gargasian) and Upper (Clansayesian) Substages. The following ammonitic zones are separated and characterized: Cheloniceras ( Epicheloniceras) martinioides Zone, C. ( E. ) subnodosocostatum Zone, Acuntho­ hoplites no/alii Zone, Hypacanthoplites ;acobi Zone. Aptian is covered with a wash-out by Albian. The inter­ ruption of the sedimentation includes Late Aptian (partially), Early and Middle Albian (partially) Substages. Albian Stage is represented by the Middle (partially) and Upper Albian Substages. The following zones are esta­ blished and characterized: Hoplites ( Hoplites) dematus Zone, Euhoplites loricatus Zone, Euhoplites /aut us Zone, J'yfortoniceras ( Pervinquieriu) inflatum Zone, Stoliczkaia dispar Zone. In some sections the separation of the first four zones is impossible due to the strong condensation in their basement. Albian is normally covered by Cenomanian. The boundary between them is traced by the disappearance of Stoliczkaia ( Stoliczkaia) . Mor­ tvniceras and the appearance of Mantelliceras. Northwestwards an increase of the sandstones and mixed ter­ rigenous-carbonate rocks is observed in Aptian. An increase of the condensation and decrease of the thickness of the sediments to the south direction are established in Albian. Pe3IOAte.

  • 12. Lower Cretaceous Ammonites from the South Atlantic Leg 40 (Dsdp), Their Stratigraphic Value and Sedimentologic Properties
    12. LOWER CRETACEOUS AMMONITES FROM THE SOUTH ATLANTIC LEG 40 (DSDP), THEIR STRATIGRAPHIC VALUE AND SEDIMENTOLOGIC PROPERTIES Jost Wiedmann and Joachim Neugebauer, Geol.-palaont. Institut der Universitat Tubingen, BRD ABSTRACT Eleven ammonites have been cored during Leg 40. They were found concentrated in the lower parts of the drilled section at Sites 363 (Walvis Ridge) and 364 (Angola Basin), and permit recognition of upper Albian, middle Albian, and upper Aptian. So far, no lower Albian could be recognized. A high ammonite density can be assumed for the South Atlantic Mid-Cretaceous. In contrast to data available so far, the Walvis Ridge associations consisting of phylloceratids and desmoceratids show more open- basin relationships than those of the Angola Basin, which are composed of mortoniceratids, desmoceratids, and heteromorphs. Paleobiogeographically, the South Atlantic fauna can be related to the well-known onshore faunas of Angola, South Africa, and Madagascar as well as to the European Mid-Cretaceous. This means that the opening of the South Atlantic and its connection with the North Atlantic occurred earlier as was generally presumed, i.e., in the middle Albian. Records of lower Aptian ammonite faunas from Gabon and Brazil remain doubtful. High rates of sedimentation prevailed especially in the Aptian and Albian, in connection with the early deepening of the South Atlantic basins. The mode of preservation of the ammonites suggests that they were deposited on the outer shelf or on the upper continental slope and were predominantly buried under sediments of slightly reducing conditions. In spite of a certain variability of the depositional environment, the ammonites show a uniform and particular mode of preservation.

E-mail: [email protected] 2Formerly of the Geological Survey of Pakistan, Quetta, Pakistan (Dr Fatmi died on 27 March 2012) ABSTRACT: Kennedy, W.J. and Fatmi, A.N. 2014. Albian ammonites from northern Pakistan. Acta Geologica Polonica, 64 (1), 47–98. Warszawa. The occurrence of rich Albian ammonite faunas in what is now northern Pakistan has been known for more than 80 years, but there has been no comprehensive account of the assemblages present. A total of 36 taxa are described below. The middle part of the Lumshiwal Formation yields Upper Aptian ammonites south of the Samana Range. Elsewhere, it yields Douvilleiceras leightonense Casey, 1962, of the lower Lower Albian Leymeriella reg- ularis Zone and the Sonneratia perinflata and S. kitchini Subzones of the Sonneratia chalensis Zone of the north- west European sequence. The top one to two metres of the Lumshiwal yields an abundant fauna of rolled and phos- phatised ammonites that includes elements from much of the Albian. Of these, Prolyelliceras gevreyi (Jacob, 1907) first appears in the lower Lower Albian Leymeriella tardefurcata Zone. The commonest ammonite is Douville- iceras mammillatum (Schlotheim, 1813) sensu lato, which ranges from the perinflata Subzone of the chalensis Zone to the Otohoplites bulliensis Subzone of the O.

Evaluations of oceans until the Cretaceous−Paleogene event, when they became globally extinct. Following museum collections (Mikasa City Museum, and this event the modern types of cephalopods (squids, cuttlefi sh, octopus) radiated in the Ceno- Kyushu University, Japan; California Academy zoic in all oceans.

Details types of cephalopods about 35 m.y. before the Cretaceous−Paleogene event documents a more of the localities, horizons, and the precise strati- complex evolutionary history of cephalopods than previously thought. Here we show that the graphic ages of Albian belemnites are shown in modern types of cephalopods originated and prospered throughout the Late Cretaceous in Table DR1 in the Data Repository.1 the North Pacifi c. The mid-Cretaceous cephalopod turnover was caused by cooling and the closure of the Bering Strait, which led to a subsequent faunal isolation of this area.

  • A Comparison of the Ammonite Faunas of the Antarctic Peninsula and Magallanes Basin
    J. geol. Soc. London, Vol. 139, 1982, pp. 763-770, 1 fig, 1 table. Printed in Northern Ireland A comparison of the ammonite faunas of the Antarctic Peninsula and Magallanes Basin M. R. A. Thomson SUMMARY: Ammonite-bearingJurassic and Cretaceous sedimentary successions are well developed in the Antarctic Peninsula and the Magallanes Basin of Patagonia. Faunas of middle Jurassic-late Cretaceous age are present in Antarctica but those of Patagonia range no earlier than late Jurassic. Although the late Jurassic perisphinctid-dominated faunas of the Antarctic Peninsulashow wide-ranging Gondwana affinities, it is not yet possible to effect a close comparison with faunas of similar age in Patagonia because of the latter's poor preservation and our scant knowledge of them. In both regions the Neocomian is not well represented in the ammonite record, although uninterrupted sedimentary successions appear to be present. Lack of correspondence between the Aptian and Albian faunas of Alexander I. and Patagonia may be due to major differences in palaeogeographical setting. Cenomanian-Coniacian ammonite faunas are known only from Patagonia, although bivalve faunas indicate that rocks of this age are present in Antarctica. Kossmaticeratid faunas mark the late Cretaceous in both regions. In Antarcticathese have been classified as Campanian, whereas in Patagonia it is generally accepted, perhaps incorrectly, that these also range into the Maestrichtian. Fossiliferous Jurassic and Cretaceous marine rocks are rize first those of the Antarctic Peninsula and then to well developedin theAntarctic Peninsula, Scotia compare them with those of Patagonia. Comparisons Ridge andPatagonia (Fig. 1A).In Antarcticathese between Antarctic ammonite faunas and other Gond- rocks are distributed along the western and eastern wana areas wereoutlined by Thomson (1981a), and margins of theAntarctic Peninsula, formerly the the faunas of the marginal basin were discussed in magmatic arc from which the sediments were derived.

A.: Cenomanian cepha­ lopods from the Glauconitic Limestone southeast of Esfahan, Iran. Acta Palaeont Polonica, 24, I, 3-50, April 20, 1979. The Glauconitic Limestone of the area southeast of Esfahan yields a rich Ceno­ manian cephalopod fauna of Boreal aspect, including species of Anglonautllus, Stomohamites, Sciponoceras, Idiohamites, Ostllngoceras. Mariella, Hypoturrllites. Turrllites, Scaphites, Puzosia, Austiniceras, Hyphoplltes, Schloenbachia. Mantelll­ ceras, Sharpeiceras and Acompsoceras, most of which represent new records for the area. The age of this fauna Is unequivocally Lower Cenomanian, and can be correlated in detail at a distance of 5000 km with parts of the northwest European Hypoturrll!tes carcitanens!s and Mante!liceras saxbit Zones. The material studied includes none of the Upper Albian, Middle and Upper Cenomanian elements re­ corded from the unit by previous workers. The fauna Is numerically dominated by acanthoceratids, in marked contrast to the Schloenbachia-dominated faunas of northwestern Europe. This suggests the area lay In the southern parts of the Boreal Realm, where Schloenbachia Is known to become progressively scarcer, as Is supported by proximity to the Zagros line marking the juncture of Asian and Arabian plates.

  • Sur Les Zones D'ammonites Dans L'alrien De France Et D'angleterre
    SUR LES ZONES D'AMMONITES DANS L'ALRIEN DE FRANCE ET D'ANGLETERRE par Maurice BREISTROFFER INTRODUCTION M. L.-F. Spath, le grand spécialiste anglais des Ammonites, a terminé pendant la guerre son magnifique travail : « A monograph of the Ammonoidea of the Gault », paru en 16 fascicules (787 pages et 72 planches) dans le « Palaeontographical Society » entre 1923 et 1943. Après des études très minutieuses de paléontologie stratigra- phique, basées sur l'examen d'un matériel extrêmement riche, rémi­ nent paléontologiste londonien a pu dresser un tableau de 306 espèces d'Ammonites du Gault d'Angleterre, classées suivant leur réparti­ tion dans les 7 zones et 21 sous-zones distinguées dans l'Albien, à l'exclusion toutefois des quatre sous-zones les plus inférieures, qui sont les moins fossilifères en Angleterre (sept. 1941 : pari. XIV, 668; sept. 1942 : part. XV, 674-681). Ces tableaux très précis étant de beaucoup les plus complets de tous ceux parus jusqu'ici et devant servir de base à tous les pro­ chains travaux stratigraphiques sur l'étage Albien d'Europe et même du monde entier, il semble particulièrement intéressant de confronter les remarquables résultats obtenus en Angleterre avec ceux acquis en France, ces deux pays étant certainement les deux plus favorables au monde pour l'étude de la stratigraphie albienne, en raison de leur extrême richesse en Ammonites pour la plupart phosphatées, gréseuses ou pyriteuses, souvent d'une conservation magnifique et en quantité prodigieuse dans certaines localités privilégiées. 16 MAUR1CK BREISTKOFFUK. Si, pour l'Albien moyen (s. 1.), le gisement de Folkestone (Kent) est incontestablement le plus riche du monde, dépassant en parti­ culier les gisements de Wissant (Pas-de-Calais), de Dienville (Aube), de Saint-Florentin (Yonne), d'Escragnolles-Clars ou de Gourdon (Alpes-Maritimes), de la Balme-de-Rencurel (Isère), etc.j par contre, pour l'Albien inférieur (s.

Alabushev, Tübingen With 11 figures and 1 table in the text ALABUSHEV, A. (1995): Ammonite faunas and biostratigraphy of the Albian to Middle Cenomanian (Cretaceous) in western Korjak-Kamchatka, NE Russia. — N. Jb. Geol. Paläont. 196: 109-139; Stuttgart. Abstract: Most of the known ammonite faunas from the Albian to Middle Cenomanian formations of Korjak-Kamchatka, northeastern Russia, are revised and summarized. 7 poorly known species are described. 22 other species are illustrated and mentioned in the discussion. A new ammonite zonal scheme is proposed for the Albian to Middle Cenomanian of the region. Zusammenfassung: Die meisten Ammonitenfaunen des Albs bis Mittel-Cenomans von Korjak-Kamtschatka (NE Rußland) werden zusammengefaßt und revidiert. 7 weniger bekannte Arten werden beschrieben. 22 weitere Arten werden diskutiert und abgebildet. Als Ergebnis wird ein neues Ammoniten-Zonen-Schema für das Alb bis Mittel-Cenoman der Region vorgestellt. 1. Introduction Albian to Cenomanian sedimentary formations are exposed along the axial part of Korjak-Kamchatka, a main Mid-Cretaceous depocenter in the Pacific margin of NE Russia (Fig. 1). The rocks were deposited in the miogeosynclinal trough between the foreland of the Okhotsk-Chukchi volcano-plutonic belt and a system of island arcs, which migrated towards the foreland during the Albian and away from it since the Cenomanian (ALABUSHEV & WIEDMANN 1994b, ALABUSHEV, in press). The most complete Mid-Cretaceous successions of true marine deposits are known in the western Korjak-Kamchatka, namely: Talovka and Penzhina river basins (Fig.
