Fossil dinoflagellate cysts and acritarchs have been reported and described from the various members of the Jhuran Formation exposed at a number of localities in the Kutch Basin. The assemblage comprises 31 species referable to 24 genera. On the basis of qualitative and quantitative analyses the age of the dinoflagellate assemblage has been concluded to be Upper Oxfordian to Kimmeridgian, probably extending up to Pectinatites pectinatus zone.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
