Foraminifers and Nannofossils from Upper Flysch Lithozone in the Tikveš Paleogene Basin, Republic of Macedonia
Abstract
In this paper, the results of micropaleontological research of foraminifer fauna and calcareous nannofossils for upper flysch lithozone in Tikveš бasins, stratigraphically important for determining geological age Paleogene complex in the basin, is presented. Rich and diverse nannofossil flora and microforaminifer fauna found in sediments above flyschlithozone of Krivolak section from Tikveš Paleogene basin, gives an option to identify a biostratographic zone according to benthic foraminifera and nannofossil zone.Downloads
