Abstract

The micropaleontological components, particularly smaller foraminifers, from limestonesof theUpper Carboniferous Auernig Group (Carnic Alps, Austria/Italy) are described. Most of the taxa have been previously recorded from North America, Arctica and Russia (Urals, Donbass). The biostratigraphical value of Pseudovidalina , Nodosinelloides , Tezaquina and Vervilleina for the Oembourgian stage is recognized. The systematical part is principally devoted to generic discussion concerning Hemidiscus and Eolasiodiscus ; Palaeobigenerina , Deckerella , Cribrogenerina and Climacammina ; Ammovertella , Calcivertella and Calcitornella ; Spireitlina and Pseudopaleospiroplectammina ; Pseudovidalina and Raphconilia : Vervilleina and Tezaquina ; and Nodosinelloides , Protonodosaria and Nodosaria .
