Dinoflagellate cysts from the Bathonian – Tithonian (Jurassic) of North Bulgaria. III. Tithonian dinoflagellate cysts

Geologica Balcanica, 1994
Tithonian marine sediments from 34 boreholes and one outcrop in North Bulgaria have been palynologically examined. They contain rich anа commonly well preserved dinocyst assemblages. This paper includes brief comments on morphology, taxonomy, geographic and stratigraphic distribution of 56 dinocyst taxa and 2 acritarch species which start ill this ...

Endocranial anatomy of the earliest Cretaceous European neosuchian crocodyliform Pholidosaurus purbeckensis provides new evidence for the ecological evolution of Pholidosauridae

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
We present new insights into the internal cranial anatomy of the neosuchian crocodyliform Pholidosaurus purbeckensis, based on CT‐scan data of material from the lowermost Cretaceous Purbeck Limestone Group, southern UK. From the study of the endocast, we obtained new information on the phylogeny and the ecological evolution of the Family ...

The calcareous nannofossils and magnetostratigraphic results from the Upper Tithonian–Berriasian of Feodosiya region (Eastern Crimea)

Geologica Carpathica, 2019
This article is concerned with nannofossil study of Tithonian–Berriasian sediments of Eastern Crimea. The NJT 16, NJT 17a, NJT 17b, NKT, and NK 1 nannofossil zones were determined. The occurrence of Nannoconus kamptneri minor, one of the potential marker-

Computed tomography reveals multiple origins of extreme caudal vertebral pneumaticity in sauropod dinosaurs

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
Here, we present novel CT scan data of caudal vertebrae of six Middle–Late Jurassic sauropods, representing several eusauropod lineages. We synthesise these new data with a comprehensive critical appraisal of purported external and internal evidence for caudal vertebral PSP in Sauropodomorpha.

A rare protoglobigerinid association (Foraminifera) from the Tithonian of Gerecse Mts, Hungary [PDF]

, 2004
A rich protoglobigerinid fauna was studied from the Tithonian limestones of Paprét-árok, Gerecse Mts, Hungary. The early planktonic foraminifera association was investigated in thin section and in isolated specimens as well, extracted using acetic acid ...

CALCAREOUS NANNOPLANKTON OF THE TITHONIAN OF THE EASTERN CRIMEA

Collection of Scientific Works of the Institute of Geological Sciences of the NAS of Ukraine, 2009
Впервые установлен видовой состав известкового нанопланктона в титоне восточного Крыма. Нанофоссилии встречаются редко и имеют малое видовое разнообразие. Полученные данные не дают возможности разделить титон, но позволяют проводить его границы: нижнюю – по исчезновению Stephanilithion bigoti; верхнюю – по расцвету Nannoconus.

Middle – Late Jurassic (Late Bathonian – Tithonian) Palynomorphs

Journal of Micropalaeontology, 1985
Abstract. INTRODUCTIONJurassic palynomorph assemblages have been recovered in numerous wells in northeast Libya. Jurassic rocks reflect changing sedimentary environments which have greatly influenced the composition of the palynological assemblages.In the northernmost area, Jurassic sediments unconformably overlie the Palaeozoic or Triassic and show a ...

1D Basin Modelling of Upper Jurassic to Upper Cretaceous Source Rocks in the Southern Pletmos Sub‐Basin, Outeniqua Basin, Offshore South Africa

Journal of Petroleum Geology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Pletmos sub‐basin in the Outeniqua Basin, offshore South Africa, is divided by the Superior, Pletmos and Plettenberg faults into northern and southern depocentres. In this study, geological and organic geochemical data together with 1D basin modelling were used to investigate the burial, thermal and maturation histories, and the timing of ...

The Jurassic–Cretaceous Transition in the Slovenian Basin (Alpine Atlantic): Further Evidence for Palaeoenvironmental Record in Pelagic Sediments

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems
Over the vast area of present‐day Europe, the Tithonian–Berriasian transition was a time of climate aridization, which was supposedly related to the more general trend of the latest Jurassic–earliest Cretaceous cooling and restrictions in atmospheric ...

Late Jurassic-Early Cretaceous palynostratigraphy and palaeoclimate in the Andigama Basin, Sri Lanka

Journal of Asian Earth Sciences: X, 2021
Sri Lanka consists of only ten percent of sedimentary rocks, and high-grade metamorphic rocks underlie the rest. Most of these sedimentary terrains are post-Gondwanic and such formations help to understand the geological history of the island.
