Abstract

The Bajocian ammonite faunas of the ‘Oberer Blaukalk’ Member (Wedelsandstein Formation) and of the lower part of the ‘Humphriesioolith’ Member (Gosheim Formation) in the vicinity of Gosheim (SW Swabian Alb) are studied. At least three biohorizons of the Sauzei Zone can be distinguished: dilatus, pseudocontrahens, macrum and ?carinodiscus biohorizon, probably followed by the deltafalcata biohorizon of the basal Humphriesianum Zone (Pinguis Subzone). This succession is correlated with other sites in SW Germany and abroad.
