Abstract

Abstract Bioevents range in importance from the first/last appearance of a single taxon, through zonal boundaries of local/regional/international significance, major non-sequences, to (at the highest level) global bioevents. The UK mid-Upper Cretaceous succession is now sampled at better than a 1 m spacing from many localities providing over 2000 samples for detailed analysis and development of high resolution stratigraphy. Examples of detailed correlation are provided for the Albian/Cenomanian boundary, the mid-Cenomanian and the uppermost Cenomanian, while consideration of the complete faunal succession provides information necessary for the monitoring of global environmental change in the Cretaceous.
