“…Tethyoceramus (Sornay, 1980) Remarks: The genus is relatively rare in the studied material, similar to the equivalent succession of the U.S. Western Interior (Walaszczyk and Cobban, 2000 Walaszczyk and Wood, 1998;Walaszczyk and Cobban, 2000), and is well represented in Madagascar, where it apparently starts at the topmost Turonian and ranges through most of the lower Coniacian (Sornay, 1980;Walaszczyk et al, 2004Walaszczyk et al, , 2014a.…”

“…It is a Boreal species, rarely reported in the Mediterranean area (see, e.g., Tröger and Summesberger, 1994). The genus seems to be limited to the Northern Hemisphere; reports from the Southern Hemisphere (Heinz, 1929;Kauffman in Kennedy et al, 1973) are not confirmed (see discussion in Kennedy et al, 2008;Walaszczyk et al, 2014a). The genus is widely reported from the North Pacific Province, particularly from its western parts.…”

“…Bed-by-bed collecting from a number of Cenomanian successions was carried out during the 2005-2007 field expeditions to Madagascar to re-study the Upper Cretaceous successions and stratigraphy of the Morondava Basin, sponsored by the Polish Ministry of Science and Education (see Walaszczyk et al 2014). Cenomanian successions were examined at Mahaboboka, Vohipaly and Bereketa, three localities east of the town of Tulear in the southern part of the Basin (Text- fig.…”

ABSTRACT:Kennedy, W.J., Walaszczyk, I., Gale, A.S., Dembicz, K. and Praszkier, T. 2013. Lower and Midle Cenomanian ammonites from the Morondava Basin, Madagascar. Acta Geologica Polonica, 63 (4), 625-655. Warszawa.Lower and Middle Cenomanian ammonite assemblages have been collected on a bed-by-bed basis from localities at Vohipaly and Mahaboboka, Madagascar, as well as from outcrops around Berekata, all in the Morondava Basin, southwest Madagascar. These collections demonstrate the presence of the upper Lower Cenomanian Mantelliceras dixoni Zone and the lower Middle Cenomanian Cunningtoniceras inerme Zone of the north-western European standard sequence. These records indicate that the striking anomalies in the zonal assemblages of the classic divisions of the Madagascan Cenomanian are based on mixed assemblages, rather than a succession that differs radically from that elsewhere in the world. The dixoni Zone fauna is: Desmoceras cf. latidorsatum (Michelin, 1838) (Pervinquière, 1907), Mariella (Mariella) stolizcai (Collignon, 1964), Hypoturrilites taxyfabreae (Collignon, 1964), Turrilites scheuchzerianus Bosc, 1801, Sciponoceras cucullatum Collignon, 1964, and Sciponoceras antanimangaensis (Collignon, 1964). The presence of Calycoceras in a Lower Cenomanian association represents a precocious appearance of a genus typically Middle and Upper Cenomanian in occurrence, and matches records from Tunisia. The inerme Zone yields a more restricted assemblage: Pachydesmoceras kossmati, Forbesiceras baylissi, Acanthoceras sp. juv., Cunningtoniceras cunningtoni (Sharpe, 1855) and Hypoturrilites taxyfabreae.
