Estudio bioestratigráfico y paleoambiental de la Formación Río Turbio (Eoceno Medio a Superior) en el sudoeste de Patagonia (Argentina) basado en quistes de dinoflagelados
During the middle and late Eocene the Austral Basin, in southern Patagonia (Argentina), was fl ooded by an AtlanticOcean transgression, which was responsible for the deposition of the upper member of the Río Turbio Formation. We haveanalyzed the dinofl agellate cyst assemblages from this stratigraph...

During the middle and late Eocene the Austral Basin, in southern Patagonia (Argentina), was fl ooded by an AtlanticOcean transgression, which was responsible for the deposition of the upper member of the Río Turbio Formation. We haveanalyzed the dinofl agellate cyst assemblages from this stratigraphic section in order to provide a biostratigraphic frameworkand reconstruct the paleogeographic and paleoceanographic conditions in this area. Dinofl agellate cyst events recorded werecompared and interpreted based taking into account other records recognized for the South Pacifi c Ocean. The comparisonallowed us to suggest an age between 45.5 Ma (mid-Lutetian) and 33.5 Ma (Priabonian) for the upper member of the RioTurbio Formation. We recognized three zones of dinofl agellate cysts.
