  Article:   WIELICIAN FORAMINIFERA AT THE WESTERN BORDER OF THE TRANSYLVANIAN BASIN.

Authors:  SORIN FILIPESCU.
 
       
         
  Abstract:  Marine Middle Miocene deposits at the top of Gârbova de Sus Formation preserve a particular foraminifera assemblage, with both benthic and planktonic taxa. Presence of several biostratigraphic significant species allowed an extension of the known age of the formation, up to Wielician. The morphogroups also suggest a deeper environment, compared to the rest of the formation. The change of fauna type at this level might be correlated to the start of a new global cycle.
