  • 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.

All rights reserved, including the right to reprint excerpts and to make photomechanical reproductions. Map Competence Atlas: Electromobility in Saxony Foreword Electromobility is one of the most important future fields of transport. The biggest challenges electromobility faces are how to connect the existing structures and technologies intelligently, and how to develop innovative ideas and concepts, and put them into practice. In Saxony, almost the entire electromobility value chain is represented: from technology compa- nies in the electrochemistry, power electronics and software development industries to premium carmakers and an innovative network of automotive suppliers and global energy suppliers. The commitment of Saxon companies, research institutions and the public administration to electromobility is undiminished. And increasing numbers of people are interested in electromo- bility – in businesses and research, but also private consumers. The Electromobility Competence Atlas is now in its fourth edition – and it is more wide-ranging and diverse than ever before. The main driver for positive economic developments in the Free State is the manufacturing industry, in particular the automotive industry, which has traditionally been strong in Saxony.

Dear People of Dresden, Dear Guests of our city, The integration of people from other cultures consists of every area of daily life: education, work, social security, family, health, culture, law, politic and ecology. And only when everyone in Dresden knows they are responsible and do their part can integration in our city work. So, how do we begin? In the way we deal with it. Through dealing with it people receive faces, which reflect memories and wishes. Through dealing with it, refugees become people from our community. That helps us break down prejudices. And for that, the 26th Annual Intercultural Days Dresden offers a large array of possibilities: at the festive opening ceremonies, or at the intercultural street festival, in talks and dis­ cussion rounds, at breakfast or with music. People of Dresden with differing backgrounds and religions invite us to get to know their culture. We accept their invitation.
