deep-water section at Holzhäusl (Salzburg,
Austria). A newly discovered species,
Hantkenina nov. sp., is the link between
Clavigerinella caucasica and
Hantkenina mexicana. This finding unequivocally
heralds the initial entry of
Hantkenina, which is correlated to the
upper part of calcareous nannoplankton
Subzone NP15b (Sullivania gigas Subzone),
to be defined. This indicates a
mismatch of 4.5 m.y. between the base
of the Lutetian at the type locality, which
has been placed within Subzone NP14b,
and the first appearance datum of Hantkenina.
Consequently, the first occurrence
of Hantkenina can no longer be
used as a marker for the base of the middle
Eocene.

白 垩 纪 放 射 虫 Afens Riedel et Sanfilippo
属 新 种 = New cretaceous radiolarian
species of the genus Afens Riedel
et Sanfilippo. ( 英 文 ). Bragina L G. Paleontological
Journal, 2010, 44(1): 11-
15 2 图 版 .
Diverse radiolarians from the Upper
Cretaceous Perapedhi and Moni formations
(southern Cyprus) are studied.
Many representatives of the genus Afens
Riedel et Sanfilippo, 1974 are recognized.
The diagnosis of the genus Afens
is emended and three new species of this
genus, Afens perapediensis sp. nov., Afens
moniensis sp. nov., and Afens concinnus
sp. nov., are described. In addition,
the species Afens liriodes Riedel et
Sanfilippo, 1974 is redescribed.

the superorder Fusulinoida Fursenko in
the Foraminifera system. ( 英 文 ). Mikhalevich

2009, 43(2): 117-128 5 图 版 .
Comparative morphological analysis
of the test and apertural structures in
lower and higher members of the superorder
Fusulinoida and class Miliolata
has shown that they are similar in test,
developmental trends from primitive
forms with a tubular chamber to complex
supermultichamber tests of the
fusulinoid shape. As series of sections
were compared, supplementary inner
deposits at the bottom of chambers of
endothyrids (tubercles, rostra, chomata)
showed homology with the teeth of
Miliolata. The high magnesium composition
of the test wall and some ultrastructural
features shared by the two
groups support their affinity and suggest
the assignment of the superorder Fusulinoida
to the class Miliolata as an early
phylogenetic lineage.

A taxonomic description of larger foraminifers
of the genus Pseudosiderolites,
from Upper Cretaceous beds in the
Rostov Region that were previously assigned
to the Paleogene, is provided for
the first time. The beds with these foraminifers
are dated as Maastrichtian.
