Title

Foraminiferal biostratigraphy of the Upper Campanian-Maastrichtian of the Beshkosh Section, Southwestern Crimea

Abstract

New data on the taxonomic composition and stratigraphic distribution of benthic and planktonic foraminifera in the Campanian–Maastrichtian interval of the Beshkosh section (Southwestern Crimea) are presented. Samples were collected using the “sample-to-sample” method for different types of analysis. Zones and Beds were established on the basis the foraminiferal succession. The Angulogavelinella gracilis LC 18 Zone, Bolivinoides draco LC 21 Zone, Brotzenella praeacuta LC 22 Zone and Beds with Gavelinella sahlstroemi were recognized using benthic foraminifera and Beds with Laeviheterohelix glabrans, Guembelitria cretacea Zone were recognized using planktonic foraminifera. All recognized biostrata are correlated with magnetostratigraphic, palynomorph and macrofauna events. Beds and zones recognized based on benthic foraminifera are correlated with Campanian–Maastrichtian bioevents in sections of the European paleobiogeographic region. Planktonic foraminiferal data are correlated with the International Stratigraphic Scale (Tethys Region) and the regional stratigraphic scheme of Poland. For the first time, 15 species of nine planktonic foraminifera genera and 38 species (25 of which were found for the first time) of 25 benthic foraminifera genera have been identified in the Beshkosh section.
