JURASSIC RADIOLARITES FROM THE EASTERN PART OF THE PIENINY KLIPPEN BELT (WESTERN CARPATHIANS)
Abstract
The radiolarites of the Saris and Pieniny part of the Pieniny Klippen Belt belong to the Pieniny Succesion s.l. (Nemcok et al. l990). A horizon of radiolarites from the locality Milpos and Podsadek near Stara Lubovna contains a considerable calcareous admixture. At the localities of Sarisske Jastrabie and Lucka the radiolarites are almost without calcite and contain Mn coatings. The radiolarian associations represent UAZone 8 - UAZone l0 ranging from middle Callovian to early Kimmeridgian (sensu Baumgartner et al. l995). Radiolarites with Mn coatings reach to middle Oxfordian at the locality Sarisske Jastrabie. A new genus Fultacapsa nov. gen. is described in this paper.
