Mid Cretaceous orbitolinid (Foraminiferida) record from the islands of Cres and Losinj (Croatia) and its regional stratigraphic correlation
The mid Cretaceous shallow-water limestones on the islands of Cres and Lošinj contain abundant and diversified orbitolinid foraminifera. A biostratigraphy, based on the orbitolinid taxa and their chronostratigraphic interpretation, is proposed for the Aptian, Albian and Cenomanian deposits on the area investigated. Four orbitolinid biozones have been recognized: (1) Palorbitolina lenticularis Taxon-Range Zone in the Lower Aptian ; (2) Orbitolina (Mesorbitolina) texana Assemblage Zone in the Lower Albian, the body of strata being characterised by a distinctive assemblage of Orbitolina (Mesorbitolina) texana, O. (M.) subconcava, O. (M.) parva and O. (M.) pervia ; (3) Valdanchella dercourti Taxon-Range Zone in the basal Upper Albian ; and (4) Orbitolina (Conicorbitolina) conica Abundance Zone in the Lower to Middle Cenomanian, a body of strata in which the abundance of the species Orbitolina (Conicorbitolina) conica is significantly greater than is usual in the adjacent parts of the section, regardless of either association or range. The established biozones on the islands of Cres and Lošinj are correlated with orbitolinid biozonations and orbitolinid stratigraphic distributions in the adjacent areas, with emphasis on the Karst Dinarides.
