Early Cretaceous (Berriasian) microflora on Mount Hermon

Journal of African Earth Sciences (and the Middle East), 1991
Abstract An exposure near Ein Qinya (E. 29375/N. 21940), Mount Hermon yielded numerous miospores most probably of Berriasian age, which are possibly the oldest Cretaceous fossils above the Jurassic Cretaceous plane of unconformity in this area. These miosporres are shown to be useful for correlation of assemblages from the Purbeckian facies of ...

Magnetostratigraphy of the Berriasian stratotype section (Berrias, France)

Earth and Planetary Science Letters, 1985
Abstract The Berriasian (Early Cretaceous) stratotype section (Berrias, Ardeche, France), 30 m thick, consists of well-bedded blue-gray pelagic limestone. The biostratigraphic subdivision of this section is based on ammonite and calpionellid zonations. Magnetostratigraphic study has yielded a reliable magnetic polarity sequence.

Berriasian Stage of the Crimean Mountains: Zonal subdivisions and correlation

Stratigraphy and Geological Correlation, 2008
Biostratigraphy of the Berriasian Stage in the Crimean Mountains is specified and substantiated. Fragments of all the standard stage zones (jacobi, occitanica, and boissieri) are distinguished based on the found index species, and position of the Jurassic-Cretaceous boundary is targeted.

Pterosaurs from the Lower Cretaceous (?Berriasian) of Anoual, Morocco

Annales de Paléontologie, 2000
Abstract A report on the pterosaurian remains from the Lower Cretaceous of Anoual, Morocco, is presented. The material consists of teeth possibly documenting two groups. One of them cannot be clearly established but might be ornithocheirid, while the most numerous teeth are reminiscent of those of gnathosaurine.

Early Berriasian ammonites from Shal, Talesh region (NW Alborz Mountains, Iran)

Cretaceous Research, 2012
An early Berriasian (Berriasella jacobi Zone) ammonite fauna is described for the first time from the Alborz Mountains in northwest Iran. It has been collected from a section located near the village of Shal (Talesh region); in addition to rare phylloceratids, lytoceratids and Neolissoceras, the majority of ammonites belong to the neocomitid subfamily ...

The Berriasian Tirnovella occitanica Zone in the Feodosia Area (Eastern Crimea)

Moscow University Geology Bulletin, 2019
The occurrence of the Tirnovella occitanica Ammonite Zone in the Berriasian section of Feodosia was confirmed here for the first time. The results of sedimentological, bio-, and magnetostratigraphic study of this interval are discussed.

Revised holostratigraphy of the Tithonian-Berriasian transition at Tré Maroua (Le Saix, Hautes-Alpes, SE France): Study of a rejected Berriasian GSSP candidate

Volumina Jurassica
The study of the Tithonian and lower Berriasian succession of Le Saix (Hautes-Alpes, France) has made it possible to better characterize the lithological succession at a former Berriasian GSSP candidate, its set of microfacies, the stratigraphic ranges of the main groups of marine plankton and therefore the calpionellid and saccocomid biozonations.

Gigantic Valletia (Bivalvia, Rudistae) from the Lower Berriasian of Southwestern Crimea

Paleontological Journal, 2020
A gigantic shell of a rudist of the genus Valletia is described for the first time from the Lower Berriasian of Southwest Crimea. The lithology and geological age of the host rock are discussed.

Shell structure of the Early Cretaceous (Berriasian-Barremian) Rhynchonellids from Dagestan

Paleontological Journal, 2010
The shell structure of five rhynchonellid species from the Lower Cretaceous of Dagestan was studied for the first time. The primary layer is rarely preserved in fossil rhynchonellids. Most of the species studied have a primary layer composed of prismatic calcite, one species has a finely granulated primary layer. The secondary fibrous layer consists of
