continue through Jurassic and Cretaceous sections. All of these<br />
Mesozoic siliceous deposits are of marine origin. Generally three<br />
lithologic associations with chert are recognized in the Mesozoic<br />
sections. 1. the Porphyrite-chert assemblage of Middle-Late Triassic<br />
age, 2. the Diabase-chert Formation of Middle-Late Jurassic age, and<br />
3. carbonate complexes of Middle Triassic to Danian ages. The first<br />
two lithologic associations are connected with the breakup of the<br />
Dinaridic plate at the end of Early Triassic, which was followed by<br />
hybrid volcanic activity with the greatest production of volcanic<br />
rocks in the Ladinian. At that time an oceanic region developed, and<br />
existed to the Late Jurassic. Bedded chert formed on transitional and<br />
oceanic crust. They formed in different parts of this oceanic basin<br />
by different depositional mechanisms. Commonly, olistoliths of the<br />
porphyrite-chert assemblage occur in the Diabase-chert Formation.<br />
Siliceous deposits associated with carbonate complexes occur in<br />
different parts of Yugoslavia, but as an example of this lithologic<br />
association we discuss the occurrences in the Budva zone,<br />
Montenegin Littoral. The Budva zone represents a depositional<br />
trough on thinned continental crust situated between two carbonate<br />
platforms. The sedimentation of carbonate rocks with bedded chert<br />
took place mostly on the slopes, beginning with subtidal deposition in<br />
the latest Ladinian and evolving later into open-shelf deposition.<br />

Radiolarian-rich siliceous facies of the Middle and Upper<br />
Jurassic were studied in four stratigraphic sequences located in<br />
different areas of the Middle Subbetic Zone. Two stratigraphic units<br />
are recognized. Calcareous radiolarites of the middle-upper<br />
Callovian and siliceous mudstones and marls of the uppermost<br />
Callovian to Oxfordian. The <strong>radiolaria</strong>n assemblages recovered from<br />
the four sections permit to recognize the <strong>radiolaria</strong>n zones A0, Al,<br />
A2, B, C1 and C2 of Baumgartner (1987) in the upper Bajocian to<br />
lower Tithonian. Ammonite faunas recovered from interbedded<br />
calcareous layers allow for more precise ties of the <strong>radiolaria</strong>n<br />
zones to the stages.<br />

In this paper we establish the biostratigraphy by means of<br />
Radiolaria and calcareous nannoplankton of the siliceous materials<br />
from three stratigraphic sequences located in different Middle<br />
Subbetic areas. The above cited series contain ammonite fauna in<br />
the under and/or overlying levels to the siliceous materials, and<br />
therefore the datations are simplified. For the interval uppermost<br />
Bajocian-lowermost Kimmeridgian we can recognize the <strong>radiolaria</strong>n<br />
zones Al, A2, B and C1, which has been established by Baumgartner<br />
(1987) in the Western Tethys. Calcareous nannoplankton permits to<br />
distinguish two different intervals: a lower, Bajocian to Lower<br />
Callovian age and other one Callovian to Oxfordian.<br />

Microfossil assemblage from the Late Jurassic to Early<br />
Cretaceous Nikoro Pelagic Sediments, Tokoro Belt,<br />
Hokkaido, Japan. Mem. Fac. Sci., Kyushu Univ., Series D<br />
(Earth planet. Sci.), 27/3, 193-214.<br />
The Tokoro Belt in Hokkaido constitutes one of the major<br />
ophiolitic belts in the Japanese Islands. In order to clarify the origin<br />
of the Tokoro ophiolitic rocks which are represented by the Nikoro<br />
Group, new micropaleontologic data of the Nikoro pelagic sediments<br />
are presented in this paper as regards <strong>radiolaria</strong>ns, calcareous<br />
nannofossils and foraminifers. The results show that (1) the age of<br />
the Nikoro Group ranges from the Kimmeridgian to the early Albian,<br />
and (2) the Nikoro pelagic rocks were deposited in a seamount<br />
environment near an oceanic ridge in the paleoequatorial productive<br />
region, where the paleodepth was about 1000 m and above the CCD.<br />

Xiphostylidae Haeckel and Parvivaccidae, n. fam.,<br />
(Radiolaria) from the North American Jurassic.<br />
Micropaleontology, 35/3, 193-255.<br />
This report deals with the Parvivaccidae, n. fam. and a revision<br />
of the Xiphostylidae Haeckel. Both of these spumellarian families are<br />
- 38 -<br />
unique in that they possess cortical shells consisting of two distinct<br />
fused layers of latticed meshwork. Three new genera and twentynine<br />
new species are described from the Xiphostylidae Haeckel.<br />
Emended definitions are presented for Triactoma Ruest, Tripocyclia<br />
Haeckel, and Xiphostylus Haeckel. Two new genera and two new<br />
species are described under the Parvivaccidae. Only Jurassic<br />
xiphostylid and parvivaccid taxa are figured herein. Range,<br />
occurrence, and relative abundance of the more important taxa are<br />
shown in the text-figures.<br />

Flocculation of siliceous detritus on the sea floor of a deep<br />
Pacific seamount. Deep-Sea Res. Part A, oceanogr. Res. Pap.,<br />
36/12, 1841-1861.<br />
A benthic layer of flocculated material, which was centimetres<br />
thick in and around biogenic sediment structures on the carbonatecovered<br />
cap of Magellan Rise (7° N, 177° W; equatorial Pacific),<br />
consisted of a meshwork of delicate and spiny forms of <strong>radiolaria</strong>ns<br />
including phaeodarians. Like phytodetritus, patches of degraded floc<br />
appear to be disrupted on relatively short time scales by surface<br />
deposit-feeding megafauna. This destruction is through ingestion of<br />
surface sediment particles and erasure of sediment structures<br />
serving as benthic particle maps.<br />

history of the Pliocene Bianco section, Calabria, southern<br />

105.<br />
An integrated micropaleontological and geochemical study was<br />
carried out on the Pliocene-age Bianco section located in Calabria,<br />
southern Italy. This section is somewhat unique for the Pliocene of<br />
the Mediterranean region in that it contains abundant calcareous and<br />
siliceous microfossils. Based on the biostratigraphic findings, it<br />
ranges in age from approximately 3.7-3.0 Ma. The Bianco section is<br />
composed of marly mudstones intercalated with diatomites, with the<br />
diatomites being particularly common in the upper 50 m of the<br />
section (above 3.1 Ma).<br />
The diatomites contain an abundant benthic foraminiferal<br />
assemblage and have a low organic carbon content indicating that<br />
bottom waters were fairly well-oxygenated during their deposition.<br />
Faunal and floral indicators suggest a cooling of surface waters in<br />
this region at 3.1 Ma. The diatom assemblages within the Bianco<br />
diatomites are very similar to those living in the Gulf of California,<br />
suggesting an upwelling origin for these silica-rich units. A model is<br />
proposed which attributes diatomite formation to upwelling induced<br />
by climatically controlled changes in local hydrography.<br />

equatorial Pacific. Quartz and feldspars of detrital origin are also<br />
found in the sediment.<br />

radiolarite, siliceous mudstone and marl, and pelagic limestone with<br />
