Abstract
Biostratigraphy of Shallow Marine Jurassic Beds in Southeastern Slovenia
Highlights
IntroductionBuser geologically mapped the territory of south Slovenia from the Italian-Slovenian border in the west, across Trnovski gozd, Hrušica, Nanos, Logatec and Bloke plateau with Javomiki, Krim-Mokrec hills and Lower Camiola, to Suha krajina in the east
The aim of the present study is to offer a detailed biostratigraphic classification of the Jurrassic shallow-marine carbonate stratigraphie sequence in southeastern Slovenia
The stratigraphie range of fossils collected from different localities has been studied and used as a basis for biostratigraphic subdivision of Jurassic beds in southeastern Slovenia.^On the basis of collected micropaleontological data in the area between Logatec, Žužemberk and the river Kolpa, it has been possible to define all units used for the biozonation of these beds in Outer Dinarides
Summary
Buser geologically mapped the territory of south Slovenia from the Italian-Slovenian border in the west, across Trnovski gozd, Hrušica, Nanos, Logatec and Bloke plateau with Javomiki, Krim-Mokrec hills and Lower Camiola, to Suha krajina in the east. Detailed geological investigations have been carried out in the sections Krka-Mali Korinj and Kompolje-Ogorelec in the Suha Krajina area about 35 kilometres SSE from Ljubljana ( Strohmenger & Dozet 1991) In these sections the complete stratigraphie sequence of the Jurassic beds including the contacts between the Upper Triassic and Lower Liassic as well as the Upper Malm and the Lower Cretaceous is exposed. In the framework of regional investigations for the Geologic Map of Slovenia on the scale of 1:50000 detailed regional mapping of the Suha Krajina region has been carried out by Stevo Dozet and Božo Stojanovič
