Abstract
The authors call attention to positive results of microbiostratigraphic analysis used in the engineering-geological investigation of large landslides under complicated geological and tectonic-structural conditions. The landslides area is situated at the contact of the Silesian and Subsilesian nappe structures of the outer Carpathian Flysch Belt. An accurate stratigraphic assignment of monotonous Cretaceous and Paleogene incompetent pelitic rocks permits to determine more precisely their tectonic position in the nappes and in the landslide area. The geologic-tectonic predisposition caused the local stability decrease of the valley slopes.
