“…The base of the Campanian was provisionally defined with the last occurrence of the stemless, pandemic crinoid species Marsupites testudinarius (Schlotheim, 1820) (Hancock and Gale 1996; see also Gale et al 2008). As, however, this crinoid maybe limited to some environments, the base of the reversed polarity Chron C33r, which approximates the crinoid level, is evenly considered as the primary boundary marker (see comments in Ogg and Hinnov 2012).…”

Dynamic evolution of the Campanian and Maastrichtian (Upper Cretaceous) of the Miechow Synclinorium is presented. Through chronostratigraphic analysis, the geometry of the Campanian and Maastrichtian of the area is interpreted, while microfacies analysis allowed determination of some of the paleoenvironmental parameters (rate of sedimentation, bottom condition and terrigenous input). The chronostratigraphy is based on inoceramid biostratigraphy. Nine inoceramid zones are recognized: Sphenoceramus patootensiformis, Sphaeroceramus sarumensis-Cataceramus dariensis and ‘Inoceramus’ azerbaydjanensis-‘Inoceramus’ vorhelmensis, ‘Inoceramus’ tenuilineatus, Sphaeroceramus pertenuiformis, ‘Inoceramus’ inkermanensis and ‘Inoceramus’ costaecus- ‘Inoceramus’ redbirdensis (Campanian); Endocostea typica and Trochoceramus radiosus (Maastrichtian). Five unconformities (isochronous in the study area) represented by horizons of slower sedimentation rate, were recognized. They correlate with eustatic sea-level changes, well recorded in European successions (Jarvis et al. 2002, 2006; Niebuhr et al. 2011). Unconformity horizons allow six alloformations to be distinguished. The thickness of particular chronostratigraphic units within the Campanian and Lower Maastrichtian increases progressively toward the axis of the Danish-Polish Trough, which indicates that the inversion of the trough could not have started before the Late Maastrichtian.

“…Although these crinoids are widespread in Chalk facies, they are virtually unknown from other lithologies, suggesting a strong facies control. Furthermore, their distributions occur at northern Tethyal and Boreal palaeolatitudes in the northern hemisphere and southern Tethyal and Austral palaeolatitudes in the southern * E-mail: simon.mitchell@uwimona.edu.jm or barrettia2000@ yahoo.co.uk hemisphere (Gale et al 2008). There is, therefore, a lack of records from equatorial palaeolatitudes.…”

The Cretaceous crinoid Uintacrinus socialis from Jamaica and its significance for global correlation

The late Cretaceous crinoid Uintacrinus socialis Grinnell, which is a potential marker for the base of the Upper Santonian Substage, is reported from the Inoceramus Shales of St Ann's Great River Inlier on the north coast of Jamaica. This is the first record of this species from the Caribbean region and marks its lowest latitudinal distribution reported to date. The Inoceramus Shales are a deep-water clastic mudstone unit which extends the palaeoecological distribution of this crinoid. Uintacrinus socialis proves that the Inoceramus Shales are of Santonian age and will help constrain correlations between the shallow-water platform carbonate/volcaniclastic facies found in the arc successions of the Caribbean and the international chronostratigraphy.

“…The oldest possible age includes the upper part of Helvetoglobotruncana helvetica planktonic foraminiferal zone (Caron, 1985;Premoli Silva and Verga, 2004), although the marker species was not identified. Marginotruncanids widely appear in the middle Turonian and almost completely disappear at the Santonian-Campanian boundary (Gale et al, 2008). Species such as the Marginotruncana sinuosa (Porthault) and Marginotruncana tarfayensis (Lehmann) appear according to some authors later in the late Turonian in the M. sinuosa planktonic foraminiferal zone (Caron, 1985;Premoli Silva and Verga, 2004) or even in the Coniacian (Ion et al, 2004;Grosheny and Malarte, 2002).…”
