Actinocamax primus arkhangelsky (belemnitellidae; upper cretaceous) biometry, comparison and biostratigraphy
Tóm tắt
A sample ofActinocamax primus Arkhangelsky, 1912 from the Lower Middle Cenomanian limestones of the Wunstorf quarry west of Hannover (NW Germany) is studied by univariate and bivariate biometric methods in order to analyse the variation of critical characters.A. primus is closely related toA. plenus (Blainville, 1825) but differs from that species by being smaller and more slender.A. primus appears in the Lower Cenomanian and continues into the Lower Middle Cenomanian. It is mainly distributed in the northern part of the North European Palaeobiogeographic Province.A. plenus is recorded from the Middle Cenomanian-lower Lower Turonian of the Russian Platform, but only from the Middle Upper Cenomanian in NW Europe. It is widespread in the North European Province.The primus event in the Lower Middle Cenomanian and theplenus event in the Middle Upper Cenomanian are briefly discussed.
