Abstract

The paper the results of the micropaleontological investigations on the foraminiferal fauna, foundin the upper flysch unit of six open Paleogene cross sections Čardaklija, Eževo Brdo, Karaorman, Kadrifakovo,Madžarica, Nemanjici, and one drill OP-1. Foraminiferal biostratigraphy of the Upper Eocene sediments in the OvčePole basin is represented by one benthic biostratigraphical zone and planktonic foraminiferal concurrent zone.
