The Gargasian (Middle Aptian) substage in the Aptian historical stratotypes (SE France): General introduction [PDF]
In 1998 a double volume of the Journal "Géologie Méditerranéenne" (t. XXV, N° 3-4) was devoted to a detailed inventory of the Lower Aptian (Bedoulian substage) historical stratotype located in the vicinity of Cassis and Roquefort-La Bédoule, near ...

The Gargasian (Middle Aptian) strata from Cassis-La Bédoule (Lower Aptian historical stratotype, SE France): planktonic and benthic foraminiferal assemblages and biostratigraphy [PDF]
This paper presents a thorough analysis of foraminiferal assemblages ranging in age from the Bedoulian-Gargasian transition to the middle Gargasian in the Cassis-La Bédoule area (SE France), the historical stratotype of the Lower Aptian substage.

The Aptian Marls of La Tuilière (Luberon UNESCO Global Geopark, France), a Historical Stratotype [PDF]
The historical stratotype of the Aptian Stage (Cretaceous) was defined in the Luberon UNESCO global geopark in the middle of the 19th century. Due to excessive urbanization launched in the early sixties, the best outcropping conditions are those found at

Middle Aptian Orbitolinid limestones in Belgrade (Serbia): microfacies and depositional environment
Lower Cretaceous (Aptian) shallow-marine limestones with intercalated polymictic conglomerates were investigated with respect to their biostratigraphic age and their microfacies. They are the younger part of the generally carbonate-siliciclastic Lower Cretaceous deep-water (max. few hundred metres) turbiditic sequences (“Paraflysch”) of the so-called

A new small-bodied azhdarchoid pterosaur from the Lower Cretaceous of England and its implications for pterosaur anatomy, diversity and phylogeny [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Pterosaurs have been known from the Cretaceous sediments of the Isle of Wight (southern England, United Kingdom) since 1870. We describe the three-dimensional pelvic girdle and associated vertebrae of a small near-adult pterodactyloid from ...

About the stratigraphic position of the Lower Aptian Roloboceras hambrovi (Ammonoidea) level
In the stratotype of the Lower Aptian substage the position of the assemblage that includes Roloboceras spp. and Megatyloceras spp. has been clearly established as being in the middle part of the upper Bedoulian. Some authors have erected this horizon as
