the Jurassic Carbonate Series of the Chiemgau Alps (Bavaria).<br />
Facies, 24, 1-24.<br />
The Jurassic carbonate series of the Lechtal and Allgau Nappes<br />
in the central part of the Northern Calcareous Alps reflect formation<br />
of orogen-parallel structures with swells and basins. Regional facies<br />
patterns display the morphologies of the various depositional<br />
environments.<br />
During the Middle Jurassic, an elongated swell evolved parallel<br />
to the overall structural strike in the central part of Lechtal Nappe,<br />
while in the southern part a basin started to subside. This<br />
configuration reflects the initial stage of rotational block faulting on<br />
the southern continental margin of the Tethys. Similar structural and<br />
facies settings were also established in the northern part of the<br />
Lechtal Nappe and in the southern Allgau Nappe. Synsedimentary<br />
tectonics induced a variety of downslope sediment mass movements<br />
and increased facies differentiation on the slopes. In the upper<br />
section of the middle Jurassic sequences red nodular limestones<br />
with frequent intercalations of intraformational breccias and<br />
conglomerates indicate downslope sediment movements.<br />
During the Oxfordian, the Tethyan-wide deposition of<br />
radiolarites also covered the basin in the southern Lechtal Nappe.<br />
Contemporaneous deposition of pelagic <strong>radiolaria</strong>n bearing<br />
limestones dominated on the slope of the surrounding northern swell,<br />
while its peak was covered by a shallow water carbonate facies, e.g.<br />
a specific pseudopeloid and oolithic facies, which was also injected<br />
downslope into the pelagic facies.<br />
The Oxfordian to Tithonian section reveals a characteristic<br />
pelagic carbonate facies succession, e.g. with Protoglobigerina<br />
facies at the base, followed by a Saccocoma facies and a<br />
calpionellids facies on top. In the northern Lechtal Nappe and in the<br />
Allgau Nappe various similar radiolarite basins with intersected<br />
swells were discovered.<br />

the composition of particulate organic matter in the Weddell-<br />
Scotia Sea during spring 1988. Marine Chem., 35, 435-447.<br />
During EPOS 2 (European Polarstern Study, leg 2, 26 November<br />
1988-5 January 1989 the distribution of biogenic silica (BSi) was<br />
determined from the surface to 600 m along two transects (49 o W<br />
and 47 o W) spanning the Scotia Sea; the Weddell-Scotia Confluence<br />
(WSC) and the marginal ice zone (MIZ) of the Weddell Sea.<br />
Parliculate organic carbon (POC), particulate organic nilrogen (PON)<br />
and chlorophyll a concentrations were determined in parallel in<br />
surface ( 10 m ) samples.<br />
In the 0-100 m layer, the distribution of particulate biogenic<br />
silica (BSi) showed little correlation with the meltwater field in late<br />
November. High BSi concentrations were measured at the end of<br />
November in the Weddell-Scotia Confluence ( maximum 4.8 µmol l -<br />
1<br />
), and early in January in the Antarctic Circumpolar Current (<br />
maximum at 8.2 µmol l -1 ) where the wind-mixed layer was only 35 m,<br />
creating favourable conditions for phytoplankton growth. However,<br />
maximum and mean biogenic silica values remained fairly low as<br />
compared with those reported for the Ross Sea. This relatively low<br />
silica content of the 0-100 m layer appears to be mainly due to<br />
intense grazing which resulted in rapid exportation of particulate<br />
material towards the deeper layers.<br />
The mean POC/PON molar ratio was 5.5, i.e. significantly lower<br />
than the usual Redfield ratio. BSi/POC molar ratios ranged from 0.01<br />
to 0.61, the highest values being found in the Scotia Sea, where<br />
siliceous phytoplankton was dominant. The high BSi/POC ratios<br />
confirm that diatoms in Antarctic Ocean are able to incorporate<br />
unusually high amounts of Si relative to carbon, as compared with<br />
other ecosystems.<br />

(Frasnian) <strong>radiolaria</strong>n fauna from the Liukiang Formation,<br />
eastern and southeastern Guangxi. Acta micropalaeont.<br />
sinica, 8/4, 395-404. (in Chinese)<br />
The siliceous rocks of the Upper Devonian Liukiang Formation<br />
are widely distributed, in eastern and southeastern Guangxi.<br />
Abundant fossil <strong>radiolaria</strong>ns and tentaculitids are found in these<br />
rocks, with 4 genera and 14 species including 1 new genus and 2<br />
new species of the <strong>radiolaria</strong>ns described in this paper.<br />
- 67 -<br />
The tentaculitid faunas are dominated by the genera<br />
Homoctenus, Costulatostyliolina and Styliolina, with Styliolina<br />
philippovae and S. domanicensis regarded as important members of<br />
the Upper Devonian Frasnian Stage in the Russian Platform and<br />
Germany. The <strong>radiolaria</strong>n faunas are characterized by a great<br />
number of species and individuals of the genus Entactinosphaera<br />
such as Entactinosphaera assidera, E. egindyensis, E. aitpaiensis, E.<br />
vetusta, together with Entactinia dissora and Palaeoscenidium<br />
cladophorum, which were already discovered in the Frasnian<br />
Egindinsk Formation of the South Urals (Nazarov, 1975) and<br />
Australia (Hinde, 1899; Nazarov et al., 1982; Nazarov & Ormiston,<br />
1983), indicating that the age of the Liukiang Formation is Late<br />
Devonian (Frasnian).<br />

The occurrence of tripylean <strong>radiolaria</strong>ns is reported for the first<br />
time from subsurface sediments of the subantarctic Atlantic Ocean.<br />
Although their occurrence is rare as well as sporadic, seven species<br />
belonging to four genera are recognized from Upper Cenozoic<br />
sediments drilled at Sites 699, 700, and 701 of ODP Leg 114 in<br />
1987.<br />

Cretaceous <strong>radiolaria</strong>ns were recovered from subantarctic<br />
Atlantic calcareous submarine deposits from two of the seven sites<br />
drilled during ODP Leg 114 in 1987. Fairly well-preserved<br />
<strong>radiolaria</strong>n assemblages were found in Hole 698A samples from the<br />
Northeast Georgia Rise, whereas assemblages with fair to good<br />
preservation were observed from Hole 700B in the East Georgia<br />
Basin. The assemblage compositions from both sites are rather low<br />
in diversity and are characterized by the dominance of<br />
Protoamphipyndax, Dictyomitra, and Stichomitra species, but lack<br />
zonal markers recognized from the midlatitude to low-latitude<br />
region. Assignment of a Maestrichtian age is based on co-occurring<br />
calcareous microfossils. This report constitutes the second such<br />
occurrence from the Atlantic sector of the Antarctic Ocean<br />
subsequent to the analysis of ODP Leg 113 materials from the<br />
Weddell Sea.<br />

Radiolarian-bearing siliceous deposits are a common<br />
occurrence in the Mesozoic successions of the Northern and Central<br />
Apennines. These deposits belong to the following stratigraphic<br />
units: 1) Monte Alpe Cherts. Early Callovian to Late Tithonian or<br />
Early Berriasian. 2) Tuscan Cherts. Latest Bajocian(?)-Early<br />
Bathonian to Late Tithonian or Early Berriasian. 3) "Calcari<br />
Diasprigni". Late Bajocian(?)-Bathonian to Tithonian. 4) Fucoid Marls<br />
