Geology and stratigraphy An angular unconformity is present between the The Iranian Plate, a major segment of the Cimmerian microcontinent, had detached from northeastern Gondwana by the end of Permian and collided with the Turan Plate (part of Eurasia) towards the end of the Triassic (Sengore, 1990; Stampfli et al., 1991; Saidi et al., 1997; Mirnejad et al., 2013). From the Early Jurassic to Senonian, the young Neo-Tethyan oceanic basin was reduced in extent by its subduction under the Iranian conti- nental plate. The final closure of the Neo-Tethys, marked by the collision between the Iranian and Arabian plates, took place during the Neo- gene (Berberian et al., 1982; Shahabpour, 2005; Ahmadi Khalaji et al., 2007). The Iranian plateau is divided into several zones from SW to NE (Fig- ure 1): Zagros fold-thrust belt, Sanandaj–Sirjan metamorphic zone, Urumieh–Dokhtar volcanic belt, central Iran zone, Alborz zone, Kopeh Dagh zone, and Eastern Iran zone (Falcon, 1967; Stock- lin, 1968; Dewey et al., 1973; Stocklin and Nabavi, 1973; Jackson and McKenzie, 1984; Sengore, 1984; Byrne et al., 1992; McCall, 2002; Blanc et Figure 1 Structural map of central Iran (modified from Bahrami al., 2003; Alavi, 2004; Walker and Jackson, 2004). et al., 2018).

    We are pleased and honored to welcome at the Paléospace Museum of Villers-sur-Mer the “6th Symposium on Mesozoic and Cenozoic Decapod Crustaceans”. Villers-sur-Mer is a place universally known by specialists and amateurs of palaeontology due to its famous Vaches Noires cliffs. Villers-sur-Mer has also the distinction of being the only French seaside resort located on the Greenwich Meridian line. The Paléospace is a Museum funded in 2011 with the label Musée de France. Three main animations linked to the Time are presented: palaeontology, astronomy and nature with the neighbouring marsh. The museum is in a constant evolution. For instance, an exhibition specially dedicated to dinosaurs was opened two years ago and a planetarium will open next summer. Every year a very high quality temporary exhibition takes place during the summer period with very numerous animations during all the year. The Paléospace does not stop progressing in term of visitors (56 868 in 2015) and its notoriety is universally recognized both by the other museums as by the scientific community. We are very proud of these unexpected results. We thank the dynamism and the professionalism of the Paléospace team which is at the origin of this very great success. We wish you a very good stay at Villers-sur-Mer, a beautiful visit of the Paléospace and especially an excellent congress. Jean-Paul Durand, Mayor and President of Paléospace MOT DU MAIRE DE VILLERS-SUR-MER Nous sommes très heureux et très honorés d’accueillir à Villers-sur-Mer, le « 6e Symposium on Mesozoic and Cenozoic Decapod Crustaceans » dans le cadre du Paléospace.

Trace fossils from the Baltoscandian erratic boulders in SW Poland. Annales Societatis Geologorum Poloniae, 87: 229–257. Abstract: Many well preserved trace fossils were found in erratic boulders and the fossils preserved in them, occurring in the Pleistocene glacial deposits of the Fore-Sudetic Block (Mokrzeszów Quarry, Świebodzice outcrop). They include burrows (Arachnostega gastrochaenae, Balanoglossites isp., ?Balanoglossites isp., ?Chondrites isp., Diplocraterion isp., Phycodes isp., Planolites isp., ?Rosselia isp., Skolithos linearis, Thalassinoides isp., root traces) and borings ?Gastrochaenolites isp., Maeandropolydora isp., Oichnus isp., Osprioneides kamp- to, ?Palaeosabella isp., Talpina isp., Teredolites isp., Trypanites weisei, Trypanites isp., ?Trypanites isp., and an unidentified polychaete boring in corals. The boulders, Cambrian to Neogene (Miocene) in age, mainly came from Scandinavia and the Baltic region. The majority of the trace fossils come from the Ordovician Orthoceratite Limestone, which is exposed mainly in southern and central Sweden, western Russia and Estonia, and also in Norway (Oslo Region). The most interesting discovery in these deposits is the occurrence of Arachnostega gastrochaenae in the Ordovician trilobites (?Megistaspis sp. and Asaphus sp.), cephalopods and hyolithids. This is the first report ofArachnostega on a trilobite (?Megistaspis) from Sweden. So far, this ichnotaxon was described on trilobites from Baltoscandia only from the St.

Cold seeps fluids provide an additional source of energy for various sulfide- and 27 hydrocarbon-harvesting bacteria, often in symbiosis with invertebrates, attracting a variety of other 28 organisms including crustaceans (e.g., Levin 2005; Vanreusel et al. 2009; Vrijenhoek 2013). The 29 percentage of crustaceans of all macrofaunal specimens is highly variable locally in modern seeps, from 30 0–>50% (Dando et al. 1991; Levin et al.

  • 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.

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.

Cra. 40, no. 22C-60, Bloque B3, Apto. 1201, Bogotá DC, Colombia. * [email protected] Abstract Occurrence of the mecochirid decapod Meyeria magna M’Coy 1849 is documented based on numerous articulated specimens collected from upper Aptian strata of Colombia. This report represents the fi rst record in America for the species, previously reported from Aptian deposits of Europe. The numerous specimens of a relatively uniform size found in a single stratigraphic level suggests a mass mortality event, favorable conditions for the development of the community, or both. The stratigraphic range for the genus Meyeria is confi rmed to be Lower to Upper Cretaceous. Key words: Crustacea, Mecochiridae, Meyeria, Aptian, Colombia. Resumen La presencia del decápodo mecoquírido Meyeria magna M’Coy 1849, es documentada con base en numerosos ejemplares articulados, recolectados en estratos del Aptiano superior de Colombia.

  • Albian Ammonites from Northern Pakistan

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.
