| Stratigraphy comments: SPECIFIC STRATIGRAPHY: Upper Hauterivian, Psedothurmannia angulicostata Zone.
GENERAL STRATIGRAPHY: The lower Cretaceous in the Umbria-Marche region is represented by two formations: (1) the Maiolica Fm (late Tithonian to early Aptian) consisting of limestones; and (2) the Scisti a Fucoidi Fm (early Aptian to Albian) consisting of marls. The lithologic boundary between the two fms is gradational and is placed at the uppermost black chert at the top of the Maiolica limestones. The section is numbered bed by bed starting from the base of Scisti a Fucoidi Fm downward through the Maiolica. The beds also carry metre level names. | |||||
Lithology and environment
| Primary lithology: | concretionary,white lithified cherty/siliceous "limestone" |
| Includes fossils? | Y |
| Lithology description: White, pelagic limestone with chert lenses and nodules and scattered black shales in upper parts. | |
| Environment: | carbonate indet. |
| Geology comments: Pelagic limestones. | |
Taphonomy
| Modes of preservation: | body |
| Size of fossils: | macrofossils |
Collection methods and comments
| Collection methods: | bulk,selective quarrying,field collection |
| Reason for describing collection: | biostratigraphic analysis |
| Collection method comments: Data appears to have been recently collected by authors. Nannofossils and foraminifera presumably collected by bulk means. | |
| Taxonomic list comments:Exhaustive for depauperate ammonite fauna. Nannofossil and foraminiferal assemblages not necessarily entered. | |
