Abstract
Ooids occurring in the middle Jurassic-lower Cretaceous carbonate sediments of Akseki, Antalya (Turkey) are of two distinct kinds. Type 1 ooids are small and of irregular shape. They have 1 to 4 cortical laminae with a fine radial structure and patchy micritization. The nucleus of this type is composed of micrite and in places is not visible. In the radial part of this kind of ooid, microporosity and/or microopenings seem to be micro-borings. Type 2 ooids are large and well rounded with vaguely visible nuclei. They display fine concentric micritic laminae which coincide with endolithic microorganisms and microborings of fossils.
