A re-examination of the larger foraminifera sampled in this locality, in additionto the study of the associated planktonic foraminifera and ostracodes, suggest a deposition in anopen marine environment with terrigenous input during the middle-upper Campanian (Globotruncanaventricosa Zone and/or calcarata Zones). These preliminary results might be useful to precisethe geological setting of the Cárdenas Formation. Moreover, the comparison of the studied microfaunawith other Upper Cretaceous Tethyan ones have led to establish its strong similarities withthe microfauna found in the Caribbean realm and the U.S. Gulf Coastal Plain but its tenuous Europeanaffinities. 2002 artículo científico 1026-8774 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=57219205 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=572 Revista Mexicana de Ciencias Geológicas application/pdf Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México Revista Mexicana de Ciencias Geológicas (México) Num.2 Vol.19 |
